(HBO) – Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee, chaired a meeting of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board on August 22 to discuss the projects on building Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh Road, upgrading the Xuan Mai - Hoa Binh section of National Highway 6, and building the Km19+00 - Km53+00 section of Hoa Binh - Moc Chau Expressway; along with some other important socio-economic development issues.



Nguyen Phi Long, alternate member of the Party Central Committee and Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, addresses the meeting.

The Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh Road project, carried out in the public - private partnership (PPP) format, has total investment of over 9.38 trillion VND (390.8 million USD) and length of 23.04km, comprising 6.37km in Hanoi and 16.67km in Hoa Binh province.

Of the two construction plans, the province selected the first – building a six-lane road with a designed speed of 100km per hour on the basis of the existing two-lane road, with the forecast traffic volume until 2045 taken into account.

At the event, leaders of the provincial People’s Committee and the consulting unit presented the scale and design of the project, provided details about funding sources and the implementation plan, and reported on the construction site’s status before the project kick off.

Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long said Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh Road is a critically important project that will have great influence on socio-economic development in the province and the northwestern region at large, and create an economic corridor for the region. The provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board agreed to carry out this project in the PPP format.

He demanded resources be mobilised to accelerate, complete, and put the project into use early.

Meanwhile, the Hoa Binh - Moc Chau Expressway project, of which the Km19+00 - Km53+00 section traverses Hoa Binh, is invested with more than 9.8 trillion VND in total, of which over 8.2 trillion VND is sourced from the central budget and 1.5 trillion VND from the provincial budget. Preparations for construction are being made.

Regarding this project, Long asked the Party’s civil affairs board of the provincial People’s Committee to direct the quick settlement of difficulties in order to start the project in late 2023.

At the meeting, participants also looked into a report on the allocation plan for the central budget’s funding for the province’s socio-economic recovery and development programme, the allocation of and supplementation to the medium-term public investment plan financed by the central budget for the 2021 - 2025 period, and a draft directive of the provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board for implementing the Politburo’s Conclusion No 48-KL/TW on the continued re-organisation of district- and communal-level administrative units during 2023 - 2030.
