Vietnam ministry yet approve VND9.5T tunnel project
News - The Vietnamese Ministry of Transport has not
yet approved a VND9.5 trillion ($497.38 million) project to build Ca Pass
Tunnel in the central region, an official from the Directorate for Roads of
Vietnam affirmed.
This means that tunnel construction can not be
kicked off in October this year as announced by local media recently.
The ministry has just ratified the tunnel’s
direction at a report submitted by the project investor Deo Ca Investment JS
Company mid-July, while, other important factors such as scale and technical
standards have not yet got its permission.
The 11.25-km Ca Pass Tunnel running through Phu Yen
and Khanh Hoa province will be built under the forms of build-operate-transfer (BOT)
and build-transfer (BT).
