The demand for investment in transportation infrastructure around the country to meet socio-economic development requirements is substantial. Investors and contractors are concerned about the lack of construction materials as they work to achieve the goals set out within Vietnam’s expressway network development plan. Meanwhile, State management agencies lack a mechanism to effectively manage unit prices of materials on the market and deal with fluctuations in the prices of materials and supplies. Investors and contractors have proposed easing procedures for the issuance of mining licenses for materials in need. The Ministry of Construction will coordinate with the Ministry of Transport and relevant ministries and branches to conduct research and propose solutions to the government and the Prime Minister on effectively using construction materials, to contribute to resolving difficulties from a shortage of leveling materials for transportation infrastructure projects in the Mekong Delta and especially the Eastern North-South Expressway project in the 2021-2025 period.
