Central Quang Binh province proposes $113 mln upgrade to Ho Chi Minh Highway sections

The People's Committee of the central province of Quang Binh  has  submitted a proposal to the Ministry of Construction, advocating for the upgrade and expansion of two key sections of the Ho Chi Minh Highway that traverse the province.

As part of the proposal, the province has requested the inclusion of the project in the national list of public investment projects for the 2026-2030 period.

The Provincial People's Committee highlighted the pressing need for this project, citing the rapidly increasing traffic volume along these road sections. This surge has accelerated infrastructure wear and tear, making the upgrade essential to ensure traffic safety and accommodate the growing transportation demand.

The proposed project is estimated to require an investment capital of approximately VND 2,900 billion ($113.5 million).
