Minister Tran Hong Minh inspects the Cho Chu – Trung Son Junction section of the Ho Chi Minh Road in Tuyen Quang province.

The Minister stressed that land clearance is decisive for progress, calling on Tuyen Quang to accelerate resettlement and ensure stable livelihoods for relocated households to build public consensus.

He noted that the Cho Chu – Trung Son section is the final piece needed to complete the Ho Chi Minh Road by the end of 2025 and set a target to finish this section by December 31, 2025.

In Thai Nguyen, Minister Tran Hong Minh examined the Cho Moi – Bac Kan Expressway at the National Highway 3 intersection in Thanh Thinh commune. He acknowledged the province’s efforts in land clearance but urged contractors and project management units to act urgently, ensure material supply, and coordinate closely with local authorities to avoid delays.

Early completion of these key transport links is expected to enhance regional connectivity, promote tourism in the Viet Bac historic area, and boost socio-economic development in the northern midland and mountainous provinces.
