An Giang province voters reflected: "National Highway 61 from Ben Nhut bridge to Dinh Hoa commune is currently seriously degraded, with many potholes and craters.
Voters propose that functional agencies soon survey upgrading and repair.
After research, the Ministry of Construction would like to answer as follows:
Old National Highway 61 from Ben Nhut bridge to Dinh Hoa commune (now Ho Chi Minh road). In 2025, the Vietnam Road Administration under the Ministry of Construction approved emergency repairs to ensure traffic safety and completed them in November 2025 with a total cost of 2.2 billion VND.
After the circulation of storm No. 10, Road Management Zone IV under the Vietnam Road Administration continued to carry out repair and restoration work with a cost of about 4.2 billion VND.
Based on the state budget of 2026, to thoroughly overcome this, the Ministry of Construction has allowed the Vietnam Road Administration to implement an investment project to repair the road surface, drainage system and complete the traffic safety system on old National Highway 61 with a implementation cost of 73 billion VND, expected to be completed before April 30, 2026.
After completion, the section of National Highway 61 mentioned above is basically overcome, ensuring traffic safety on the route.
It's a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit.
