Ho Chi Minh City Metro - Plan

Plan

The Ho Chi Minh City Metro project is managed by the city's Management Authority for Urban Railways (MAUR), a government unit working directly under the Chairman of the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City. The most recent plan put forth by this unit calls for no less than six urban rail lines. The city’s transport development master plan to 2020 envisages developing three monorail or light rail lines with a total length of 37 km and six underground metro routes with a total length of 107 km. Bến Thành Market in District 1, already a major hub for bus traffic, will become a major hub connecting several lines.

    Some fragment from his dream of human life,
    Shaped by himself with newly-learned art;

    Of the baby tortoise.
