1. Strengthen safety on divergence highways
The Ministry of Construction and the Vietnam Department of Roads require management units to review the entire traffic organization on diverged investment highways. Key solutions include:
* Adjust the sign system, road marking when necessary.
* Speed control suitable for each route segment.
* Strengthen patrols, handle violations.
* Promote the application of intelligent traffic system (ITS) to monitor and solve problems.
The goal is to reduce the risk of accidents while waiting for the highways to be fully expanded.
2. Phan Thiet - Dau Giay expressway is exploited with a maximum speed of 120 km/h
The Vietnam Department of Roads has approved a new traffic organization plan on the Phan Thiet - Dau Giay expressway:
* Maximum speed: 120 km/h.
* Inner lane: minimum 80 km/h.
* Outer lane: minimum 60 km/h.
The adjustment is made after assessing the actual exploitation conditions to improve the capacity of transportation but still ensure traffic safety.
3. Approving the plan to organize traffic connecting two highways
The Vietnam Department of Roads has approved the plan to organize traffic connecting the route between:
* Noi Bai - Lao Cai expressway.
* Tuyen Quang - Phu Tho expressway.
The management unit is required to continue to monitor vehicle traffic and adjust the plan if inadequacies arise during the exploitation process.
4. Continue to handle bulky and oversized cargo vehicles
Traffic police forces in many localities continue to open thematic inspections for:
* Oversized, overloaded cargo vehicles.
* Means of tying goods are not in accordance with regulations.
* Cases of dragging other objects cause traffic safety.
This is a group of violations that was strengthened in October to limit accidents on national highways and urban roads.
Recommendations for traffic participants
* When driving on Phan Thiet - Dau Giay highway, it is necessary to pay attention to the new speed regulation and keep a safe distance.
* Comply with the instructions of the new signboard system on highways that are adjusting traffic organization.
* Carefully check the tying of goods before circulation, especially for trucks and pickup trucks.
* Actively update the weather and traffic situation before long trips, because many areas are still affected by rain in October.
