In recent years, rain and floods have caused the Cau River water to rise, causing damage to many areas in Thai Nguyen.
Faced with the above situation, Thai Nguyen has implemented many plans to respond and minimize flooding for the central area.
In which, the project to build the Huu Cau dyke section from Cao Ngan bridge to Thac Huong dam brings many expectations.
The project has a total investment of about 2,242 billion VND, a length of about 16.4km with an inclinated roof structure, a solid earthen body; the dyke peak on the river side is arranged with reinforced concrete wave shields.
Recorded by PV on July 14, at the construction site, machinery and equipment are being mobilized to serve the construction process. The project area is fenced to ensure safety. Site clearance work is also being deployed synchronously.
According to the Thai Nguyen Traffic and Agricultural Construction Investment Project Management Board, the project is implemented in the period 2026 - 2027, passing through the wards: Phan Dinh Phung, Quan Trieu, Gia Sang and Linh Son.
Currently, the board is completing the construction drawing design dossier. At the same time, it is deploying construction in advance of the dyke section from Gia Bay bridge to Ben Oanh bridge on the area that has been cleared.
It is known that this trillion VND flood control project involves 1,496 households and 23 organizations with a total area of about 122ha of land. Of which, 836 households must be relocated and resettled. The site clearance cost at the project is up to 3,680 billion VND.
Thai Nguyen province will deploy the construction of 6 resettlement areas with a total investment of about 2,000 billion VND to serve site clearance work.
Thus, to synchronously implement the entire project, Thai Nguyen plans to mobilize a total resource of nearly 8,000 billion VND.
Mr. Nguyen Gia Long (Phan Dinh Phung ward) said: "Local people are very much looking forward to the Huu Cau dike project. When the dike is completed, it will contribute to ensuring safety for people every time floods occur.
In recent years, every time there are rains and floods, people are very worried. People expect the project, so they agree to relocate so that units can deploy construction.
When completed, the dyke line is expected to improve flood prevention capacity, minimize damage caused by flooding to the central area of Thai Nguyen. At the same time, it creates motivation to complete the technical infrastructure system, connect traffic and embellish urban space along the Cau River.
