The light rail transit (LRT) project linking Bang Na intersection and Suvarnabhumi airport is expected to break ground in 2025 with the first-phase operation to be launched by 2029, according to the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA).
The dates were provided during a seminar on the conclusion of a feasibility study and the joint venture plan for the LRT project, which had an opening ceremony yesterday overseen by Chatri Watthanakhechon, deputy permanent secretary of the BMA.
Afterwards, the BMA will give the completed study to the Interior Ministry before submitting it to the cabinet for further consideration, which is slated to wrap up within a year.
