The Ring Road V project has a total capital of nearly 700 billion VND, invested by the Thai Nguyen Provincial Traffic Construction Investment Management Board, and will be implemented from 2021.

The 6.68 km long route, passing through Phu Binh district, connecting Thai Nguyen and Bac Giang, is part of a 330 km route passing through 8 localities with a total investment of VND86,000 billion.

The road surface is designed to be 22m wide, with 4 lanes for class II roads and 6 lanes for urban roads in the 2021-2025 period. After that, the route will be upgraded to a 6-lane expressway when there are enough resources and transportation needs.

Noting the time near Lunar New Year, after 3 years of implementation, the Ring Road V project is gradually being completed, some sections have been paved with asphalt.

At the hard bridge locations: Main Canal and Troi Canal are now basically completed. At the construction site, workers and machinery are mobilized to level, create the ground, fill K98 soil... and deploy auxiliary items.

Talking to reporters, Mr. Tran Xuan Hien - Construction Team Leader of Traffic Construction and Management Joint Stock Company 236 said that the project site has basically been cleared and handed over to the construction unit.

During the construction process, a large amount of dust is generated, so the construction unit regularly sprays water to minimize the impact on households living near the project.

According to the construction unit, the Ring Road V project is expected to be completed in March 2025. The project is expected to contribute to changing the urban landscape, expanding commercial space and facilitating people's travel.
