(HBO) – Vice Chairman of Hoa Binh province People’s Committee Nguyen Van Chuong chaired a working session on October 30 to carry out a plan on reducing road toll in the locality.
Leaders of Luong
Son district People’s Committee discuss measures to cut road toll at Km42+730 toll
station on National Road
No.06.
Statistics
showed that as of October 25, 2019, 952 vehicles in Luong Son district handed
in their applications for toll reduction to related authorities, 883 of which already
had their names on the list of vehicles eligible for toll exemption or discount
of the BOT National Road No.6 Co., Ltd.
Meanwhile, 202 vehicles in Ky Son districts were eligible for toll reduction.
In the past time, authorities of Ky Son and Luong Son districts have inspected
all vehicles in the localities and asked owners to strictly follow legal
regulations, resulting in stable security and order at the two toll collection
stations. However, the situation may become more complicated when toll
collection will begin for vehicles used for business purposes as from November
1.
Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Chuong said toll
collection cannot be delayed, and all localities must strictly carry out the
Directorate for Roads of Vietnam’s Document No.6862, stressing "this is the
prestige of the province”.
He asked Ky Son and Luong Son districts to quickly verify vehicles which are
eligible for toll reduction or exemption in line with current laws, and submit
the list to the BOT firm before November 1.
All sectors, localities and press organisations should channel more efforts to
raise public awareness of the province’s toll collection policy.
Besides, Chuong ordered clarification of individuals and organisations’
responsibilities for the late implementation of directions issued by the
provincial People’s Committee’s Chairman in Notice No.2823 dated May 15, 2019.
The provincial Department of Transport was ordered to join hands with relevant
sectors to give guidance to localities in enforcing legal regulations for
vehicles used for business or non-business purposes, as well as enhance
inspections on their business registration.
Meanwhile, the local inspectorate was requested to review vehicles that enjoy
fee reduction and exemption, and work with the People’s Committees of Luong Son
and Ky Son districts and the BOT company to complete the list of the vehicles
before November 31.
The police force was assigned to ensure social order and traffic safety at the
toll collection stations, while handing out strict punishment to any
violation./.
With the motto of "polite, dedicated, professional, and lawful,” over the years, Phu Cuong commune in Tan Lac district has gradually improved the quality of processing administrative procedures, winning high satisfaction from local people and businesses.
Stretching over 300 meters, valued at hundreds of million dong and built to the new-style rural standards, a concrete road in De hamlet, Bac Phong commune, Cao Phong district, was completed by the end of 2023 thanks to the collective contributions of armed forces at provincial and district levels coupled with the active participation of military units stationed throughout the district.
Over the years, the People’s Committee of Lac Thuy district has issued many plans and programmes to speed up the administrative reform, aiming to better serve local people and businesses.
Kim Boi district is drafting 23 planning projects which are expected to help boost the local socio-economic development, attract investors, and mobilise resources for development, said Vice chairman of the district People’s Committee Tran Tuan Son.
They include the one on Bo urban area development until 2045, 20 zoning, and 12 on rural residential areas in communes.
This year, Hoa Binh province strives to have eight communes recognised as meeting new-style rural area standards and five communes satisfying exemplary new-style rural area standards. Since the beginning of the year, the provincial People's Committee has drastically directed the implementation of the national target programme on new-style rural area building to fulfil the set target.
