Cho Moi - Bac Kan Expressway: Complete handling of site clearance issues before July 24

On July 19, at the People's Committee of Thanh Thinh commune, comrade Nguyen Thi Loan, Vice Chairwoman of the People's Committee of Thai Nguyen province, chaired a working session with departments, branches, contractors and local authorities on the progress of the Cho Moi - Bac Kan Expressway Project; the work of removing temporary houses, dilapidated houses, and supporting housing for people with meritorious services and relatives of martyrs in Thanh Thinh and Thanh Mai communes.

Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Thi Loan chaired the meeting.

At the meeting, leaders of the two communes reported specifically on housing support progress. Thanh Thinh commune has 60 households eligible for housing support under different programs.

As of July 18, 59 houses have been started, of which 41 have been completed, reaching 67.2%. For Thanh Mai commune, the total number of temporary and dilapidated houses approved is 144, to date 54/137 houses have been accepted and disbursed, of which 18 have been completed, 73 are under construction, and 10 have not yet started. The cases arising (26 households) are continuing to be reviewed and the list is being supplemented.

Compensation and site clearance for the Cho Moi - Bac Kan route are still facing some difficulties. Thanh Thinh commune still has 151 households that have not received compensation, totaling nearly 94.5 billion VND. The main problems are due to land overlapping with other projects or households not agreeing on the unit price and requesting additional support.

In particular, 52 households had their land encroached upon by three other projects and were determined to be ineligible for compensation. The Commune People's Committee has notified the households to clean up their property themselves, otherwise, enforcement will be carried out according to regulations.

Thanh Mai Commune still has 42 households that have not received compensation with a total amount of 13 billion VND, due to issues related to the forest planting contract with Bac Kan Forestry One Member Co., Ltd.

Relevant units are urgently completing documents and plans for approval, expected to be completed in July 2025.

In Bac Kan Ward, there are still 35 households that have not received money, mainly because they have not agreed on the compensation price; of which 15 households grow perennial crops on rice land, and 20 households have structures that need to be relocated.

Delegates discussed at the meeting.

At the meeting, representatives of agencies and units discussed and clarified further difficulties and problems in the implementation process and proposed solutions.

Concluding the working session, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee acknowledged the efforts of localities and units in implementing the tasks. He emphasized: Localities need to continue to increase human resources and material resources to help people eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses. Regarding the progress of site clearance for the Cho Moi - Bac Kan expressway, relevant parties should focus on removing difficulties and completing the handling of problems before July 24. Localities need to have plans to support households wishing to resettle in advance to speed up the site handover progress.
