About 97 percent of the land clearance work has been completed, with the remaining 3 percent mostly in Mong Cai city, where local households are refusing to hand over their land.
According to Vu Van Kinh, Chairman of the People’s Committee of Mong Cai city, the locality is taking steps to complete the clearance work.
The Van Don-Mong Cai highway will be constructed under the build-operate-transfer (BOT) and public-private partnership (PPP) contract at total cost of more than 11 trillion VND (474.4 million USD).
