Participants included Bui Thi Minh, Permanent Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairwoman of the provincial People's Counciland deputy head of the provincial Party Committee's Organisation Board; Bui Duc Hinh, Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial People's Committee; leaders of relevant departments and agencies; and Infinity Group joint Stock Company.


 Nguyen Phi Long, an alternate member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee and head of the steering committee for the province's key projects, speaks at the conference.

According to a report from the Standing Board of the Party Committee at the provincial People's Committee, on March 20, 2025, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha signed Decision No. 653/QD-TTg approving the adjustment of the investment policy for the project to construct the Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh road and upgrade the Xuan Mai - Hoa Binh section of National Highway 6 under the PPP model.

Specifically, the Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh road will be expanded to meet highway standards with six lanes and a designed speed of 100 km/h. Under the project from 2014 to 2028, the road that is now in use had its construction started in 2014 and was opened to traffic in 2018. The road expansion is carried out from 2023 to 2028. The work requires about 253.82 ha, including about 63.5 ha in Hanoi and 190.34 ha in Hoa Binh province. The preliminary adjusted investment totals nearly 10.5 trillion VND.

At the conference, participants evaluated results while pointing out difficulties and obstacles during the project implementation, especially those relating to site clearance, resettlement, the environmental impact assessment report, procedures for changing forest use purpose, and land allocation and leasing procedures.

Concluding the event, Long emphasised that the investment project to expand the Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh road plays a crucial role in opening up opportunities for the province's development as it will gradually complete the highway network under the road network master plan for the 2021-2030 period, with a vision to 2050. It will also help connect the capital city's highways with the provinces of Hoa Binh, Son La, and Dien Bien; create a basis to attract investors in various fields, especially urban, industrial, trade, and service development; and drive socio-economic development in Hoa Binh and northwestern provinces in general.

The province aims to commence the project on July 1, 2025, he said, urging sectors, localities and investors to closely coordinate to ensure the project's progress.

He asked the provincial People's Committee to establish a working group led by a Vice Chairman of the provincial People's Committee to directly oversee resolving the difficulties and obstacles of the project.

He tasked relevant sectors to allocate resources for site clearance. Hoa Binh city was told to focus on directing site clearance and resettlement while organizing communication activities to win public support for project implementation. The investor was requested to coordinate closely with relevant agencies to promptly complete the necessary procedures to commence the project.
