Two metro stations invested in HCMC
The Ho Chi Minh City Management Authority for Urban Railways and Japanese consortium contractor Shimizu-Meada on July 21 signed a contract (bidding package 1B) to build two metro stations in HCM City.
The JPY23.7 billion contract is part of the metro route No. 1 project connecting Ben Thanh Market with Suoi Tien Theme Park. Two underground stations dubbed Municipal Opera Theatre and Ba Son, will be built, using the top-down approach.
Municipal Opera House station construction will start in late July and is scheduled for completion in April 2015.
The metro route No.1 has a total length of 19.7km, including a 2.6km underground section.
The underground section travelling past the Municipal Opera Theatre will be built, using the tunnel boring machine (TBM) technology.
Construction work on the overground section began in August 2012.
