Transport package

摘要

The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved a US$ 1.1 billion package to finance for two transportation projects in Vietnam's largest city, Ho Chi Minh City. The ADB will provide US$ 540 million towards a US$ 1.4 billion project to construct a second metro line, and put US$ 636 million towards a total US$ 1.6 billion project to construct a modern expressway to the south of the city. The 11.3 km metro rail line will link Ben Thanh Market in central Ho Chi Minh City to Tham Long, stopping at the Tan Son Nhat International Airport on the way.
