The southern province of Dong Nai’s Department of Transport has proposed extending the Ben Thanh-Suoi Tien metro project to Bien Hoa 1 Industrial Park.

According to the Dong Nai Department of Transport, Bien Hoa 1 Industrial Park, located in a 300-hectare area in An Hoa Ward of Bien Hoa City, has been planned to be turned into an urban-commercial-service area. So, if Ben Thanh-Suoi Tien metro line, running parallel with National Highway 1, is extended to have a main train station situated at Bien Hoa 1 Industrial Park, it will be much easier to connect to central Bien Hoa City and the whole province.

The VND43.7 trillion Ben Than-Suoi Tien is HCM City’s first metro project. The route would have three underground and 11 elevated stations. It is expected to be put into operation in 2023.
