The ceremony was held in a hybrid format connecting Hanoi's outlying districts of Hoai Duc, Thanh Oai, Soc Son, Thuong Tin of Hanoi, the northern provinces of Bac Ninh and Hung Yen, and Dong Thap.
Speaking at the event, PM Chinh stressed that investment in infrastructure development, including transport infrastructure, is one of the three strategic breakthroughs defined by the Party and State in socio-economic development.
He praised the authorities of Hanoi, Bac Ninh and Hung Yen for their endeavours in completing over 80% of the workload of ground clearance compensation and resettlement work in areas related to the project, and urged them to strive to fulfill the work in the third quarter of this year, in order to ensure the handover of land for construction as scheduled.
Investment in transport infrastructure is the top political task of all localities, ministries and sectors for the practical benefit of localities and the country, he stressed.
