PM Chinh said the resolution of the 13th National Party Congress identifies comprehensive infrastructure development as one of the three strategic breakthroughs. With building transport infrastructure considered an important pillar, the country aims to put 3,000km and 5,000km of expressways into use by 2025 and 2030, respectively.

He kicked off a 500-day emulation campaign for completing 3,000km of expressways to reach the target set in the resolution of the 13th National Party Congress and welcome the 14th congress.

The PM asked Party committees at all levels to issue drastic directions, the entire political system to play its part, and administrations to work harder while calling for support from people and businesses nationwide for the task.
