At the meetieng seeking ways to remove difficulties and accelerate site clearance for key projects.

At the working session, local authorities reported on the progress of site clearance for projects in the wards. Specifically, in To Hieu ward, four projects involving land recovery, compensation and site clearance are currently underway. Among them, the project to complete traffic route No. 1A and the Northwest Square flower garden (section from Trang bridge to route 1A), had 18 compensation and support plans for households approved, with a total budget of nearly 50 billion VND (1.9 million USD). However, 10 households have yet to receive compensation payments totaling more than 2.3 billion VND.

For the project to build the festival ground at King Le Thai Tong Temple, the ward People’s Committee is finalising documentation to submit to the provincial People’s Council for approval of the land recovery list affecting about 15 households, expected to be completed in March 2026. At the same time, compensation and site clearance plans are being prepared and approved, with completion targeted for the second quarter of 2026.

The project on the preservation, restoration, rehabilitation and promotion of the Son La Prison special national relic site is currently focusing on reviewing and collecting documents, and compiling a list of organisations, households and individuals subject to relocation for site clearance.

Initially, 54 households are being reviewed in accordance with the approved construction planning scheme, with completion expected in the second quarter of 2026. Further reviews will be conducted after the adjusted planning scheme is approved by the Prime Minister.

For the 16.5m-wide road connecting National Highway 6 (Truong Chinh road), from the intersection with Road 3/2 the An Phu urban area and Cuoc Song (Life) General Hospital, efforts are being made to finalise documentation for proposing the investment policy. The work is expected to be completed in March 2026.
