100 households in Tay Son town are miserable because of severely damaged roads.

For many years now, nearly 100 households on both sides of Cao Thang Street (Residential Group 4, Tay Son Town, Huong Son District, Ha Tinh ) have been in dire straits because the road is severely damaged but has not been upgraded or repaired.

Cao Thang Street is more than 1 km long, with about 100 households living on both sides and 1 business operating.

Cao Thang Road is more than 1 km long, connecting from Trung Tam Road (TDP 4) through the headquarters of Thai Phat Dat Joint Stock Company, ending at the forest area of TDP 4, with scattered households. After many years of use, without investment in upgrading or repairing, up to now, the entire road has been severely damaged, causing many difficulties for traffic, especially for nearly 100 households living on both sides of the road.

In the dry season, Cao Thang Street is full of dust (left photo) and in the rainy season it is muddy and degraded (right photo).

Ms. Le Thi Thu (born in 1977, a resident living on Cao Thang Street) expressed her frustration: “Our family has lived here for nearly 20 years but we often have to endure the dust in the summer and the flooding and mud in the winter. At many meetings with voters, we have repeatedly petitioned the authorities at all levels to upgrade and repair the roads to reduce people's suffering, but so far nothing has been resolved.”

The road surface is peeling and the exposed gravel is dangerous for road users.

According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Bao (born in 1960), the reason is that the road has been invested in for many years but has not been maintained. Meanwhile, this route often has container trucks with heavy loads entering and exiting to import goods from businesses, causing the road to be overloaded.

Every day, the road surface is "strained" by heavy trucks passing by.

In the area where Thai Phat Dat Joint Stock Company is located, Cao Thang road surface is peeling off in many places, seriously degraded, and crisscrossed with "buffalo potholes" and "elephant potholes". On hot days, the area is full of dust, but just a little rain makes it muddy, making it difficult for vehicles to travel, especially for households living in the area.

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Tan - Head of Residential Group 4, Chairman of the Farmers' Association of Tay Son town said: "Residential Group 4 currently has 228 households with more than 590 people, but there are nearly 100 households living on both sides of Cao Thang road. Almost every year we mobilize people to contribute money to hire trucks to carry dirt and rocks to "patch" the road, but the road is so damaged that no amount of effort can fill it. In the summer, people face a dusty situation, in the winter they wade through the water, it's miserable."

Cao Thang Street, the section passing through Thai Phat Dat Joint Stock Company headquarters, is degraded and the road surface is peeling.

Cao Thang Street is the worst remaining road in Tay Son town. The investment in building this road requires a large amount of capital, exceeding the local budget. We hope that the district will soon pay attention to investing and upgrading the road to ensure a stable life for 100 households and contribute to the locality's construction of a civilized urban area.
