The Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot Expressway Construction Investment Project has entered the final stage of construction and is being implemented quickly by joint venture contractors. Notably, at the construction site of this expressway, in the construction package No. 3 of the Component Project No. 3, which is managed by the Dak Lak Provincial People's Committee, the contractors and Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company (TNE&C) have installed the first bridge girders.

According to the representative of Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company, after a long period of nearly a month, when some bridges on the route under the scope of construction by contractors and Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company were qualified to launch and place girders, construction could not be carried out due to continuous heavy rain. By August 3, 2024, contractors and Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company had installed the Ea Knuec 3 bridge girder at Km110+588 in Ea Knuec commune, Krong Pac district, Dak Lak province. The I33 girder installation part of Ea Knuec 3 bridge includes 11 girder slabs with a technical weight of 60 tons per girder slab, transported by contractors and Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company from the casting yard to the location and installed. This is also the first bridge on the Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot expressway phase 1 to install girders. By August 5, 2024, the unit had completed the installation of the Ea Knuec 3 bridge girder and was installing the first girder of the second bridge, the People's Bridge 9.

Contractors and Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company constructed the construction package 3 of the Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot Expressway Component 3 Project with a total length of 4.72km, of which the starting point is at Km108+000 in Ea Kenh commune and the end point is at Km112+740 in Ea Ktur commune, Cu Kuin district. In the past time, the contractors have been rushing to construct, up to now the unit has constructed most of the difficult works, completed the abutments of 6/6 bridges, completed the drainage system of the main route...

Work is underway to install the first girder of Dan Sinh 9 Bridge.

According to the representative of Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company and the contractors, with the current rainy season weather conditions, heavy and prolonged rain like this year in the Central Highlands region, ensuring the construction progress of the projects is extremely difficult. Therefore, the team of engineers and workers of the contractors are on duty day and night, sticking to the area and constructing as soon as conditions permit. In addition, up to now, the problems related to the settlement of construction sites as well as power grid infrastructure and telecommunication cables at important traffic intersections are still being handled in parallel. Although there are still many problems that need to be handled, with the efforts of the locality and the contractor, it is hoped that these problems will soon be resolved to ensure the progress and smooth construction of the project, creating conditions for contractors to construct through the areas of the province.

The Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot Expressway Construction Investment Project Phase 1 has a total length of about 117.5km; starting point at the intersection of National Highway 26B and National Highway 1, Nam Van Phong Port area, Ninh Hoa town, Khanh Hoa province; ending point intersects with Ho Chi Minh road avoiding the east of Buon Ma Thuot city (about Km12+ 450), Dak Lak province.

Trung Nam E&C Contractor is an infrastructure construction unit with nearly 20 years of experience. Before implementing this project, the unit had experience from large infrastructure projects such as the Hue Intersection Traffic Interchange Project in Da Nang City (High Quality Project Award - Ministry of Construction); Bach Dang Bridge connecting Hai Phong City and Quang Ninh Province and Cai Lon Sluice Project in Kien Giang Province, My Thuan 2 Bridge,...
