Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has asked for accelerating construction progress of the Nhon – Ha Noi Station urban railway line, while inspecting the project on February 22.

The 12.5km route, that consists of an 8.5km elevated section and about 4km running underground, runs from Nhon to Hanoi railway station. It features a 1,435mm standard-gauge double track built to European standards, comprising eight elevated and four underground stations.

The project has a total investment of over VND34.8 trillion (over $1.3 billion).

The elevated section, from Nhon to Cau Giay, has been put into commercial operation since August 8, 2024, meeting safety and quality standards and receiving positive feedback from the public. Meanwhile, construction on the underground section is in full swing, reaching 76.3% of the total workload and largely remaining on track.
