On March 7, information from the Steering Committee for Key Traffic Works of Bac Kan province said that preparations for the groundbreaking ceremony of the Cho Moi - Bac Kan expressway project have basically been completed. The groundbreaking ceremony is expected to take place in the second week of March 2025.
The Cho Moi - Bac Kan Expressway project has a total investment of 5,750.76 billion VND, starting in 2024 and expected to be completed in 2026.
Up to now, site clearance (GPMB) in Bac Kan city has completed the counting of 342/345 affected households, of which some households have received compensation.
In Cho Moi district, compensation payment still faces some problems related to land disputes and land price determination.
At the meeting on March 6, the Steering Committee assessed that the progress of land acquisition and clearance has not met requirements and the resettlement work is still slow.
The People's Committee of Bac Kan province requested relevant units to urgently remove obstacles, speed up compensation progress, relocate technical infrastructure and complete the resettlement area. Bac Kan City is assigned to implement compensation payments in the next two days for households that have met procedures.
The Cho Moi - Bac Kan Expressway Project is of great significance, helping to improve transport infrastructure, creating momentum for socio-economic development of the province.
The Steering Committee requires agencies and units to coordinate closely to ensure the groundbreaking ceremony takes place solemnly, safely and on schedule.
