OF ROUTE 110 FROM 1753N 10601E TO 1749N 10607E, WHICH IS
PARALLEL TO THE VINH/DONG HOI RAIL LINE IS BEING IMPROVED.
THE ROUTE IN THIS AREA HAS BEEN A STATE OF DISUSE SINCE THE
TRAFFIC HAS BEEN UTILIZING THE ABANDONED RAIL BED. THIS
IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTS THAT ROUTE 110 WILL RETURN TO ITS ORIGINAL
ALIGNMENT LEAVING THE OLD RAIL BED TO BE USED FOR THE RE-
ACTIVATED RAIL LINE UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
