The road is completed after 2 years of waiting
Cai Chuoi Street, Thanh Duc Ward, completed on December 3, helps people travel conveniently, reduces the situation of agricultural products being forced to price, improves income and life.
Mr. Pham Van Bay in Thanh Duc Ward said that when Lao Dong Newspaper reported that the slow construction affected the economy, the construction unit was directed to speed up the progress. "People are more excited because now there is more convenience in traveling, and agricultural products are easier and more efficient to do business with than before," said Mr. Bay.
Mr. Bay added that the completion of the road helps transport agricultural products from the garden to the market more quickly, reduces transportation costs, and people feel secure in producing and doing business more effectively.
Accelerating progress also helps stabilize income, reduce damage to people growing agricultural products, and at the same time create favorable conditions for trade of goods in the region, improve the lives and joy of residents of Thanh Duc ward.
Mr. Tran Minh Quang, also in Thanh Duc ward, who owns about 3,000m of coconut trees, said that the unfinished road makes trading difficult, goods are transported slowly, and prices have dropped sharply.
"For example, I sell coconuts for 100,000 VND/tester, while other places sell for 120,000 VND/tester. Now the new road, wide and spacious, is at the same price as another place, much more convenient, Mr. Quang shared.
Mr. Quang shared that since the road was opened, the harvesting and transportation of coconuts are no longer delayed, goods arrive at the market on time, ensuring stable prices, increasing income for people.
