Minister of Public Works and Transport Instructs Provincial Officials to Fill Potholes

PHNOM PENH: The Minister of Public Works and Transport, Senior Minister Sun Chanthol, has told the Capital-Provincial Department of Public Works and Transport not to ignore roads that have been damaged by floods, creating extra difficulties for people to travel during the rainy season.

During the meeting to review the work progress and future direction of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport on Wednesday, 5 October 2022, Senior Minister Sun Chanthol instructed the technical working group of the Capital-Provincial Department of Public Works and Transport to fill all existing potholes that were created due to heavy rain. In particular, he instructed the working group to work on immediately connecting any road that is cut off by flooding.

As for the section of National Road No. 3 from Kampot to Veal Renh, which is 20 km long and badly damaged, the Ministry is looking to solve this problem by studying techniques to remove the poor quality 18-meter-deep soil to ensure that this road lasts for a long time.

According to a report obtained by EAC News from Soth Kimkolmony, Spokesperson for the National Committee for Disaster Management, 22 provinces were affected by recent flooding, including Kampong Thom, Siem Reap, Banteay Meanchey, and Battambang which was affected the most.

According to the Spokesperson, the flood affected more than 29 km of national roads, provincial roads and trails. Officials also said, regarding the size of the damaged road, that experts will inspect and assess the damage after flooding has stopped.

Spokesperson Soth Kimkolmony said that the floods that started in May and continue to run into the beginning of October have affected more than 40,000 houses (completely damaging 187), flooded 244 schools, 63 pagodas, flooded more than 130,000 hectares of rice fields (in which more than 20,000 hectares were badly damaged, including more than 10,000 hectares of other crops). More than 22,000 people have also been affected by floods, with more than 2,000 evacuated from affected areas, and 15 people who died.
