The PM urged the Transport Ministry to set up detailed plans and measures for organising transport vehicle systems, selling tickets through the internet to serve the best travelling of people.
The transport ministry is responsible for checking publicized ticket prices and penalising illegal ticket price increases and passenger transfers.
The ministry will regulate traffic lanes comfortably and suitably on key and high-vehicle traffic routes, strengthen safety measures at black spots (places with high rates of road accidents) and manage the domestic waterway.
The ministry must ensure security and safety at airports, railway stations, ship and bus stations at tourism sites and festival grounds.
The Ministry of Public Security was asked to strengthen patrolling and penalties for traffic and order violations during the new year holidays.
Policemen will focus on fining violations related to speeding, drunk driving, vehicles driving over capacity, riding motorbikes without wearing helmets and racing motorbikes illegally.
The police force is also asked to take strict measures for preventing illegal transport of flammable and explosive substances and materials.
The ministry will co-ordinate closely with transport inspectors to arrange police force on shifts at key routes and black places on traffic jams.
In addition, the ministry’s hotline has been publicised on mass media in order to field traffic punishment complaints from local people.
The Ministry of Information and Communications has been asked to re-enforce dissemination of traffic safety information during holidays.
In particular, the people’s committees of Hanoi and HCM City are responsible for setting up plans to organise festivals, regulate traffic lanes and arrange workforce on shifts at main gates.-VNA
