DonaCoop and VinaCapital are studying the 65,000 billion VND metro project.

Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee has just issued Document No. 4015, approving the investor's proposal for the project to extend the Ben Thanh - Suoi Tien metro line to Bien Hoa City and Long Thanh International Airport under the form of public-private partnership (PPP), which is a joint venture of DonaCoop Infrastructure Investment Joint Stock Company and VinaCapital Group.

This decision was made after considering the investor's proposal and the opinion of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Finance. Accordingly, the Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee approved the proposal of the Department of Finance to assign the DonaCoop and VinaCapital consortium to carry out the project of preparing the research report.

The first section is 6.5km long, connecting from station S0 to the new administrative center of the province in Bien Hoa Industrial Park 1. The second section is from the new administrative center to Long Thanh Airport with a length of about 27km. The remaining section is about 5km long, connecting the new administrative center with the central axis of Bien Hoa.

Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee assigned the Department of Finance to receive project documents, the maximum time to submit the investment proposal report is 9 months from the date of written approval of the proposed investor.

Previously, the DonaCoop - VinaCapital consortium sent a document to Dong Nai authorities, requesting to prepare a research report on the metro line 1 extension project (Suoi Tien - Long Thanh), while simultaneously developing a smart urban model TOD (Transit-Oriented Development) along the route.

Total investment capital is expected to be about 65,000 billion VND (excluding compensation and site clearance costs), using 100% private capital of the consortium and partners for investment.

The consortium plans to implement construction and complete the project within 4-6 years from the date of site handover.
