NR 31 Rehabilitation Project Achieves Full Completion

The rehabilitation and upgrade of Cambodia’s NR 31, spanning 53 kilometers, has reached 100% completion, marking a major milestone in the nation’s infrastructure development. The project, connecting Bek Kous at the NR 3 intersection to Kampong Trach district town and linking with NR 33, was officially announced as completed on 28 November 2024.

This achievement was confirmed during a site inspection led by HE Khan Mane, Secretary of State and Project Director, accompanied by technical teams from China Construction Bridge and Road Corporation (CRBC) and Guangzhou Wan An Technical Consulting Company.

HE Khan Mane emphasized the strategic importance of the road, noting its role in boosting connectivity and economic activity within the region. To ensure quality assurance, the road will be temporarily opened for public use for one year, during which inspections and evaluations will continue before its official handover to CRBC.

HE Khan Maner urged the construction teams to prioritize completing essential tasks such as installing traffic signs and road markings. He highlighted the need to adhere strictly to technical standards and ensure optimal safety for all road users.

In response, CRBC committed to expediting these tasks to guarantee the road is fully operational in time for the Sea Festival, aiming to enhance travel convenience and facilitate transport for residents and visitors.

The NR 31 rehabilitation project, launched on 30 December 2022, represents a significant leap in regional infrastructure. Its completion enhances connectivity and underscores Cambodia’s commitment to modernizing its transport network to support socio-economic growth. (Read more)
