Recently, people in Phu My ward, Thu Dau Mot city continue to complain about the DX02 road extension project, from Huynh Van Luy street to Dong Cay Viet street (inter-area 1-5, Phu My ward, Thu Dau Mot city) being under construction for a long time, being messy, and causing danger to traffic participants.
According to research, this is a public investment project assigned to the Thu Dau Mot City Construction Investment Project Management Board as the investor. The project has a total investment capital of about 700 billion VND.
On December 20, 2021, Thu Dau Mot City People's Committee issued Decision No. 5474 approving the selection results of Ngoc Bao Construction and Trading Company Limited to win the bid for this road construction and equipment package with a value of 95.8 billion VND. The contract implementation period is 360 days (including holidays, Saturdays and Sundays). The contractor selection consultant is Quang Minh Construction Technology Consulting Company Limited.
According to the schedule, the project should have been completed and put into use from 2023. However, the project encountered problems in relocating the power grid and compensating for site clearance. Therefore, the project was delayed and has not been completed yet.
According to records, currently, both sides of the sidewalk and the entire road surface have been basically completed. The electric poles have also been relocated.
However, the project is quite shabby, the starting point connects to the bumpy Huynh Van Luy street. Next is the section where the land has not been cleared yet, with grass and trees growing wildly.
Some sections have not been paved yet, leaving grass growing and water stagnating, posing a danger to road users.
The poles have not been installed with electric poles protruding from them, posing a danger to pedestrians on the sidewalk. In addition, some points show signs of damage.
Some manhole covers protrude higher than the road surface, also posing a danger to people.
Meanwhile, trees have not been planted on both sides of the road. Deep holes where water accumulates can be dangerous for people.
According to the Binh Duong Provincial Inspectorate, this is one of three projects selected for inspection recently. When the project was only 60% complete, the inspectorate discovered some areas that had not been compacted.
Notably, the Binh Duong Provincial Inspectorate pointed out that the Thu Dau Mot City Construction Investment Project Management Board's inspection of the bidding documents of Quang Minh Construction Technology Consulting Company Limited, which provided bidding consultancy, was not strict. This led to the appraisal and approval of bidding documents with some evaluation criteria that were not suitable for the scale and technical nature of the bidding package.
Increased monitoring
Binh Duong Provincial Inspectorate requested the People's Committee of Thu Dau Mot City to supervise the implementation of construction contracts according to schedule; Strengthen supervision and management of construction quality, design - estimate preparation and appraisal of estimate documents.
