Project Management Board 7 is drastically directing contractors to mobilize maximum human resources and equipment, organize construction in overtime and overtime, strive to complete the entire project on February 10, organize acceptance and put it into operation from February 15 (before the Lunar New Year of the Horse), Director Director of Project Management Board 7 said. It is known that prolonged heavy rain since November 2025 has triggered adverse geological factors, causing the slope of the positive slope in the Km11 hill area (section Km 10+740 - Km 11+300), damaging the foundation, road surface and completed traffic safety works.

Regarding reinforcement and drainage solutions, the Minister suggested using the method of digging trenches along the route to stabilize the slope. This trench system needs to be arranged appropriately according to each landslide section to prevent the movement of the soil mass. At the same time, attention must be paid to reinforcing the trench system for effective drainage and ensuring project stability. The consulting unit must re-evaluate the sliding arc according to field reality and documents to achieve a stability coefficient, avoiding incorrect calculations leading to unsafety for the project.
