Trang Dinh District has recorded positive results in site clearance for the Dong Dang – Tra Linh Expressway project, with the motto of being “close to the people” and the movement of “Land handover before compensation receipt.”
The project section in Trang Dinh District has a total length of 27.13 km, using about 194.47 hectares of land and affecting 886 households in 5 communes. To ensure progress, the Trang Dinh District Party Committee directed the entire political system to get involved, with clear task assignments, practical mottos, and an intensive emulation campaign, as well as propaganda to each household.
As of the end of October, contractors had mobilized over 1,000 personnel and 350 units of machinery and equipment to work on 26 construction sites, implementing bridge, tunnel, and culvert items, with a realized value of VND397.16 billion (about 3.95% of the contract value), according to a report by the Project Enterprise.
The leaders of the Provincial Inspection Committee and representatives of the units awarded prizes to outstanding villages in the intensive emulation campaign and the movement of “Land handover before compensation receipt” in site clearance for the Dong Dang – Tra Linh Expressway project.
The determined involvement of the local government and Party committees at all levels in Lang Son Province was crucial in ensuring that contractors quickly obtained land for construction deployment.
Trang Dinh District has made significant strides in site clearance for the Dong Dang – Tra Linh Expressway project, with nearly 100% of residents receiving compensation and handing over the construction site thanks to effective propaganda and mobilization.

Mr. Hoang Anh Dung, Permanent Vice Secretary of the District Party Committee and Vice Chairman of the District Site Clearance Steering Committee, said that the Steering Committee had made specific assignments and divided tasks among propaganda groups, with each group in charge of persuading households that still had concerns. This helped to promptly answer questions about compensation prices and support policies.
As a result, the district organized 63 propaganda sessions, creating a broad consensus and helping people understand the project’s benefits.
Contractors promptly deploy machinery and personnel as soon as the site is handed over.
“Being close to the people in site clearance is essential for the authorities to listen to the people’s legitimate aspirations. The working group regularly interacts with the people, providing detailed explanations, so that the households agree and support the project, thereby facilitating construction implementation,” Mr. Dung emphasized.
The Dong Dang – Tra Linh Expressway project has a total length of 121 km and a total investment of nearly VND23,000 billion, which is invested in two phases. In the first phase, the expressway will be more than 93 km long, with an investment of VND14,331 billion. Construction started on January 1, 2024, and is expected to be completed before the Lunar New Year in 2026.
