Alstom Transport eyes Hanoi metro projects
The French leading group Alstom Transport expects to take part in Hanoi ’s first ever metro system projects as a contractor of equipment.
Alstom Transport Managing Director in Asia and the Pacific Tom Richardson spoke of the desire when meeting with Vice Chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee Nguyen Van Khoi on August 7.
Khoi revealed that the metro route linking the Hanoi station and Nhon in the outlying district of Tu Liem is estimated to cost more than 500 million Euro sourced from official development assistance (ODA) capital, including over 200 million Euro from the French Government.
The official also briefed his guest on the Hoan Kiem Lake-Thang Long bridge metro project with an investment of 1.2 billion USD and the other connecting Ngoc Khanh (Dong Da district) with Hoa Lac, a new urban centre more than 30 km away from the capital’s heart.
A promoter of sustainable mobility, Alstom Transport develops and markets the most complete range of systems, equipment and services in the railway market.
Present in Vietnam since 1989, the group engaged in a number of projects to produce electricity and supply railway equipment.
