the road networks in an uniform, balanced and synchronous manner, ensuring the
combination and association among different traffic modes, forming a smooth
communications system, thus satisfying higher and higher transport demand on the
national and international scales.
- Traffic systems connected to
Ho Chi Minh road:

+ Waterway
Investing in the construction
and development of seaports with favorable conditions for connection to Ho Chi
Minh road on the basis of the general planning for development of Vietnam's
seaport system till 2010, already approved by the Prime Minister in his
Decision No.202/1999/QD-TTg of October 12, 1999.

Investing in renovation,
upgrading and construction of railway lines tied up in transportation with Ho
Chi Minh road, connecting into a chairn railway system to satisfy national and
international transport demand, in compatibility with the planning on
development of Vietnam's railway communications and transport service till
2020, already approved by the Prime Minister in his Decision No.06/2002/QD-TTg
of January 7, 2002.
- Solutions to the organization
of population quarters along the road and the organization of crossings to
ensure traffic safety:
+ Strict measures must be worked
out for the development of population quarters along the road in order to ensure
that the population quarters, industrial zones and clusters strictly comply
with plannings and lie outside the traffic safety corridor of the entire road.
+ Crossings must not be casually
opened from construction works, including people's houses, to the road, cutting
across sewers, blocking the water drainage sewers along the entire road.
+ Minimizing the opening of
crossings from the planned construction projects along the road to the road.
+ Well organizing traffic hubs
when Ho Chi Minh road intersects national highways and important provincial
roads with high traffic flow in order to ensure vehicle's speeds and traffic
safety, including Lang-Hoa Lac express way, national highways 6, 12B, 15, 47,
48, 7, 8, 12, 9, 49, 14, 24, 40, 19, 25, 26, 27, 28, 13, 22,...

+ Minimizing local traffic
roads' level crossing with Ho Chi Minh road.
+ Organizing feeders, bridges
and tunnels, bridge and flyovers and organzing rational connecting roads to and
from Ho Chi Minh road sections running through urban centers, population
clusters, industrial zones and clusters in order to ensure safe and smooth
traffic.
+ Making full use of parallel
daily-life roads in order to organize the feeders' system and intersections as
well as rational connecting and disconnecting roads with Ho Chi Minh road sections
running through dense rural population quarters.
+ The tree planting along the
road must comply with the plannings; plans on tree planting should be
stipulated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, ensuring that
the clearance span comply with Vietnamese standard TCVN 4054-98.
- Solutions to the organization
of stops:
+ Planning the construction of
systems of stops lying outside the road protection corridor in areas where
exist beautiful landscapes, combining them with tourist sightseeing, public
services such as filling stations, vehicle garages.... Stops may be organized
independently or in conjunction with population quarters.
+ The distance between two stops
shall be 80 km to 150 km.
+ The minimum size of a stop
shall be 1 ha, with the maximum width along the road approximating 200 m.
+ The organization of operation
of stops must ensure absolute traffic safety.

- Water source protection:
+ The protection scope of
surface water sources: Between 200m and 500m upstream and 100m and 200m
downstream.
+ The protection scope of
underground water sources: A protection radius of 25m around drilled wells must
be ensured.
+ The protection scope of water
reservoirs, dams: A protection distance of 300m around the reservoirs and dams
on the whole basin must be ensured.
Within the above-mentioned
protection scope polluting projects must not be built and waste water must not
be discharged.
- Environmental protection:
+ For nature conservation zones,
relics areas: To comply with the plannings on nature conservation zones, relics
areas and with law provisions.
+ For zones lying within
flood-discharging corridors or erosion- and slide-prone areas: Construction
development is forbidden in unstably geological regions, in flood-discharging
corridors and erosion- and slide-prone areas. Population quarters or other
functional quarters which have already existed in these regions should be
studied for relocation in the course of implementing the project on construction
of the road.
The solution of sectional
fill-up and leveling should be selected as the technical preparation for
construction land in order to minimize the destruction of natural terrain and
to overcome the phenomenon of alluvial deposits in rivers, water streams as
well as soil erosion and land slide.

Areas projected for development
of construction along Ho Chi Minh road must lie outside the 500 KV high-voltage
power transmission lines' isolation corridors.
+ For areas affected with toxic
chemicals (Dioxin): Construction should be restricted or banned, depending on
specific areas and nature of specific investment construction items; new population
quarters, relic zones, service, trade,...centers must not be built. In case of
necessity, the extent of impacts of toxic chemicals must be studied and
assessed in order to work out preventive and remedial measures.
For urban centers and other
functional quarters currently existing in areas affected by toxic chemicals
along the road, the treatment of Dioxin should be studied in order to determine
the actual effects of Agent Orange in order to work out measures to prevent and
avoid them, to detoxicate and overcome adverse impacts.
8. Investment
and construction priority
a) To formulate detailed
plannings and investment projects and organize the construction of resettlement
areas in order to stabilize the life and production of people in relocated
areas.
b) To build traffic
intersections (overhead or underground), satisfying in time the construction
investment demands when necessary and ensuring safe and smooth traffic on the
whole road.
c) To plant trees on both sides
of the road and at the same time deploy projects related to the protection and
restoration of headwater protection forests.
d) To renovate and upgrade
East-West roads, particularly those in the Central Highland region, creating
favorable conditions for communications and exchanges between Ho Chi Minh road
and coastal economic development regions as well as western border regions of
the country.
e) To renovate and upgrade
technical infrastructures in the existing population quarters according to
plannings and capital sources.
