The Ministry of Transport (MoT) has just requested the Vietnam Expressway Development Investment Corporation (VEC) to strengthen inspection in expressways managed by the company, thereby discovering downgraded sections and handling illegal pick-up or drop-off locations along the expressways to ensure traffic safety in the Lunar New Year when the traffic volume will highly increase.
