In mid-March 2024, the atmosphere on the streets and projects in Cua Lo town is bustling with activity, urgency, and many machines and workers. With just about a month left until the new tourism season, urban renovation is always the top priority for the town.

Among them, the project to build a coastal embankment with a total construction length of 4.3 km is one of the important projects. Machines have been continuously working at this construction site in recent days.

Currently, the construction is facing some difficulties due to strong sea waves regularly hitting the shore, making it impossible for machines and workers to work continuously. They often have to take advantage of the ebb tide to be able to carry out construction work.

However, the workers at this project still strive to overcome obstacles to bring this project to completion on schedule.
