Meanwhile, the Hau Giang - Ca Mau expressway construction unit mobilized 89 construction teams with 1,549 personnel and nearly 1,000 machines. In addition to the roadbed and surface items, the units also accelerated the construction of the traffic safety system, ensuring completion on schedule. Up to this point, the Hau Giang - Ca Mau route has reached 70% of the construction volume.

According to Mr. Tran Van Thi, Director of the My Thuan Project Management Board (Ministry of Construction), the pressure on progress to complete the two expressways by December is very high, contributing to achieving the target of 3,000 km of expressways nationwide. However, quality and labor safety are still the highest requirements, and construction units absolutely cannot compromise on progress.

Currently, the management board and construction supervision consultants have arranged a permanent force during the holiday, promptly handling any problems, not interrupting the progress. Maintaining construction during the holiday will go hand in hand with a satisfactory labor regime for engineers and workers, so that they can work with peace of mind.
