The certificate will be submitted to Vietnam Register and the Department for Management of Transport Work Construction and Quality under the Ministry of Transport (MoT) for appraisal.
The project’s investor has worked closely with relevant units of the MoT so that the appraisal and acceptance of safety documents will be completed within this month.
The application for an environmental licence for the elevated section of the project has also been submitted to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment for appraisal, which is anticipated to be done in July.
The Nhon - Hanoi Station metro project has a total length of 12.5km. The line passes through eight elevated and four underground stations.
Work on the line started in 2009 and was initially scheduled for completion in 2015. After four deadline extensions, it is expected to be finished in 2027.
This is one of the city's important transportation projects, with the goal of reducing traffic congestion, improving the public transportation system and contributing to environmental protection.
