The Prime Minister has sent a public telegram requesting the National Traffic Safety Committee, ministries, departments, socio-political organizations, and People's Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities to focus on propagating and communicating legal provisions and guiding people in skills for transport activities during New Year, Tet Holidays and Spring Festival 2022 in order to ensure traffic order and safety and control the COVID-19 pandemic well.
Furthermore, it is essential to organize a peak period of patrolling, controlling, and dealing with violations of traffic safety laws from December 15, 2021 to February 14, 2022, and to ensure that people and task forces fully comply with COVID-19 prevention requirements. It is necessary to have appropriate passenger transportation measures in place to ensure traffic safety and COVID-19 prevention, as well as to reduce delays and cancellations; to continue providing means of transportation for passengers returning to their hometown during the Tet Holidays; and to strictly resolve overcharging by individuals and organizations.
Manufacturers, businesses, and educational institutions actively collaborate with transportation units to directly sell tickets to workers and students; schedule a suitable time for them to take Tet holidays and return to work and study, easing traffic congestion before, during, and after Lunar New Year Transport businesses and support service units are examined, encouraged, and required to commit fully to traffic safety regulations and COVID-19 prevention and control in transportation activities. Measures for timely and effective response to COVID-19 cases at transport hubs and on public transportation vehicles should be adopted.
It is critical to inspect the safety of traffic infrastructures; repair damaged roads and landslides caused by rains and floods promptly; review and supplement traffic signal systems, reflective warning devices at intersections and roads with steep slopes, narrow curves, and limited visibility that may pose a threat to traffic safety.
Departments of Health and health facilities throughout Vietnam are mandated to have plans for arranging forces, vehicles, medical equipment, medicines, and blood to provide maximum capacity for treating victims and minimizing human life loss in road accidents.
Furthermore, central and local agencies' hotlines are publicized in the media in order to collect people's feedback on traffic order and safety situations, collaborate in handling and resolving traffic incidents, and fully post up information on pandemic prevention and control at transport hubs (bus stops, railway stations, airports, ports, and so on) and on means of public transportation.
