A key project, many expectations
The project to build a coastal road through Ninh Binh province (phase I) was decided on investment policy by the Provincial People's Council in Resolution No. 41/NQ-HDND dated September 30, 2019, then continued to be adjusted in accordance with the actual situation in related Resolutions and Decisions of the Provincial People's Council and People's Committee.
This is one of the large-scale transport projects, with a total investment of up to 682,091 billion VND, using central and local budgets, demonstrating high political determination in developing strategic infrastructure. The route has a total length of 3.25km, of which 2.063km is invested in the foundation, designed according to the standards of a grade III plain road, with a design speed of 80km/h and a roadbed cross-section of 12m.
Regarding site clearance, the relevant localities have fully handed over the entire length of the route, of which 2.15km on the Ninh Binh side and 1.1km on the Nam Dinh side. This is a very remarkable result, demonstrating the drastic participation of the local authorities and the consensus of the people in the project area.
In particular, the Day River overpass is a key item of the coastal road construction project through Ninh Binh province (phase I) with a total investment of more than 682 billion VND from the central and local budgets.
The Day River Overpass Bridge is 1.2km long, with a cross-section of 12m, consisting of 22 spans using a continuous beam structure using the balanced cantilever method, one of the most modern bridge construction technologies today. The foundation uses bored piles with a maximum length of over 100m. Along with that, the approach roads at both ends of the bridge meet the standards of a grade III plain road, with a design speed of 80km/h, a road surface width of 12m, and a total length of 3.25km.
Comrade Pham Quoc Chinh, Director of the Ninh Binh Province Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board, said: The Day River overpass project has completed the bridge closing ceremony and is completing the final items. The completion of the Day River overpass, an important component of the coastal road, through Ninh Binh province, not only contributes significantly to the province's strategic traffic network, but also forms a coastal traffic axis connecting key economic corridors between the three provinces of Ninh Binh, Nam Dinh and Thanh Hoa. The project is expected to expand new development space, promote regional connectivity, facilitate trade, develop the marine economy, tourism, logistics, while enhancing the ability to respond to climate change and consolidate regional defense and security.
Aiming for August 2025
Being present at the construction site, we felt the urgent and determined working atmosphere present throughout the route. In the hot sun or wet drizzle, the construction force still maintained enough shifts, stayed close to the construction site, flexibly regulated the construction points, ensuring no interruption even for a single day. The construction progress was maintained stably despite unfavorable weather conditions. Up to now, the value of completed construction volume has reached 86.47%.
In particular, the Day River overpass has been basically completed, and the railing is currently being constructed, gradually completing. The road and drainage section of the project in phase I has also completed the K98 layer, and is being reported to the Department of Construction for inspection and acceptance to hand over to the next phase of implementing the foundation and road surface.
However, many difficulties still exist: Unstable material supply, fluctuating prices, erratic weather and high technical requirements for the Day River bridge structure. Therefore, the spirit of "overcoming the sun and overcoming the rain" is not only for construction, but also a concrete expression of political mettle, sense of responsibility and determination of the team of cadres, engineers, workers and related parties in bringing the project to the finish line on time.
Comrade Pham Quoc Chinh affirmed: Although there are still many difficulties in construction work, with the close direction of the Provincial People's Committee, the Investor has requested contractors to focus maximum financial resources, human resources, materials, equipment, and at the same time closely coordinate with specialized agencies to speed up acceptance procedures, remove technical difficulties, and ensure synchronous and seamless construction.
The goal is to complete the entire project in August 2025, in time to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day September 2, towards the Party Congresses at all levels for the 2025-2030 term. When completed, the coastal road section through Ninh Binh province will not only connect traffic between the coastal provinces of the North, but also open up a new direction for marine economic development for the province.
The route will facilitate the formation of industrial clusters and coastal tourist areas, improve transport capacity, prevent natural disasters, rescue and relief, and contribute to ensuring national defense and security. More importantly, this is a step to concretize part of the strategy for developing a synchronous and modern infrastructure of Ninh Binh province in the spirit of the Resolution of the 22nd Provincial Party Congress and the Central Government's orientation for the development of the Northern region.
In the context of climate change, extreme natural disasters and time pressure, the construction spirit of "overcoming the sun and overcoming the rain" of the forces at the construction site of the coastal road project through Ninh Binh is a vivid image expressing the will and development aspirations of a land that is growing strongly, all contributing to creating a route of trust, connecting the future, opening the way for prosperity for Ninh Binh and the Northern coastal region.
