Hanoi (VNA) – Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has urged localities and competent agencies to accelerate the implementation of transport infrastructure projects, saying they are important to the socio-economic development.

The projects must be constructed quickly and in line with the State’s regulations, PM Phuc said, stressing site clearance must be paid special attention.
