Recently, on the North-South expressway section passing through Yen Son ward, Ninh Binh province, the volume of trucks transporting soil and rock has increased significantly, leading to the risk of traffic unsafety and affecting people's lives. Especially at some soil and rock mines, regulations on transportation and environmental protection have not been strictly implemented.
The situation of vehicles transporting materials from mines to the road is not carefully covered, there is still a situation of soil and rocks falling on the road, causing dust, and in the entrance area of some mines, water troughs and car wash spray systems have not been installed and still exist.
Faced with the above situation, the traffic police force of Ninh Binh Provincial Police has strengthened forces to deploy patrols and controls, focusing on violations such as carrying overloaded goods, exceeding height, not covering, and letting materials fall onto the road.
Lieutenant Colonel Pham Anh Tuan - Head of Road Traffic Police Team No. 1 (under the Traffic Police Department of Ninh Binh Provincial Police) said that recently, due to the increased demand for foundation filling materials of traffic projects such as the Ninh Binh - Hai Phong expressway and the Cao Bo - Mai Son expressway expansion project.
Therefore, the volume of vehicles transporting materials from and from mines has also increased. Especially on Hoa Lu Avenue, National Highway 12B and the North-South expressway section passing through Yen Son ward, Ninh Binh province.
In order to contribute to ensuring traffic order and safety, protecting traffic infrastructure and reducing traffic accidents in the province, Road Traffic Police Team No. 1 has strengthened patrols, inspections, and strictly handled violations.
Road Traffic Police Team No. 1 has organized closed patrol and control forces in the area, strictly handling violations according to the topic of handling cargo and passenger transport vehicles under the direction of Department C08 (Ministry of Public Security) at km47+00 National Highway 12B, North-South expressway and Hoa Lu Avenue to strictly handle violations.
In parallel with patrolling and handling violations, we also coordinate with functional forces and local authorities where material mines are located, requesting mine owners to strictly implement regulations on transportation and environmental protection. Organize sweeping and collection of soil and rocks scattered on roads, arrange vehicles to spray water regularly to limit dust, especially in the area entering and leaving the mine and people's roads" - Lieutenant Colonel Pham Anh Tuan said.
