The Ministry of Construction has carried out the project preparation work for upgrading and renovating Highway 53 (from Nga Tu Bridge, Long Ho - Ba Si section). The project has been approved by the Prime Minister, and the investment policy is expected to be approved in July 2025 to start construction in 2026 and be completed before 2030.
Recently, although National Highway 53 and National Highway 54 have been invested in and repaired, they are still not guaranteed and not synchronized. Some sections only have patched the patched road surface, many potholes appear, are damaged, the road surface is narrow, causing difficulties for people to travel and transport goods, and traffic accidents often occur.
The Ministry of Construction also said that according to the Road Network Planning for the period 2021-2030, with a vision to 2050: National Highway 53 is about 177km, a level III road, with 2-4 lanes; National Highway 54 is about 149km, a level III road, with 2-4 lanes. Currently, the Ministry of Construction has proposed and the Ministry of Finance has issued Decision No. 1952/QD-BTC to transfer the extended section of National Highway 54 and National Highway 53 from the Ministry of Construction to the People's Committee of Vinh Long province for management, exploitation, maintenance and investment according to its authority.
