Vietnam establishes road strategy

Vietnam's Government is setting out a strategy to maintain and upgrade the country's bridges and roads. The plan will be read during this year and will include input from Vietnam's Transport Ministry and the Department of Traffic Work Quality and Construction Management. Specialists from these bodies will supervise the project, offer consultancy aid and draft the project proposal. A steering committee is being set-up by the Transport Ministry with the aim of boosting the quality of local road projects. Major road projects may also be supervised by the Transport Ministry.
