Cat Linh – Ha Dong Railway open to visitorsThe Railway Project Management Unit (under the Ministry of Transport) started to open the La Khe Station of the Cat Linh-Ha Dong urban railway project to the public for one month to help people have a closer look at the station, train and the models of all stations along the route. With great effort, the general contractor and the Project Management Unit have mobilized all resources and applied many initiatives to the project implementation in order to promote the momentum. I hope that with the determination of the general contractor, as well as related units, the Cat Linh - Ha Dong railway project will be completed and put into trial operation in 2018,” the Deputy Minister emphasized. According to Vu Hong Phuong, Deputy General Director of the Railway Project Management Unit, the project will contribute to better planning Hanoi's traffic by 2020 and reducing pollution and traffic congestion. The project starting from 2011 was to build 13 km railway, another 1.7 km in the depot area, and 12 terminals.
