Update news railway projects
Authorities at the meeting discussed the implementation of National Assembly Resolution 187/2025/QH15 regarding the investment policy for the Lào Cai - Hà Nội - Hải Phòng railway project.
The Lao Cai-Hanoi-Hai Phong railway will span approximately 390.9 kilometers for the main route, with 27.9 kilometers of branch lines.
The Ministry of Transport (MoT) recommends reviewing the existing organisations and establishing a unified Government-level Steering Committee to comprehensively oversee the railway sector.
The 174-kilometre railway will traverse six cities and provinces in the southern key economic region, enhancing connectivity between HCM City and the Mekong Delta.
The National Assembly has approved the construction of a modern railway from Lao Cai to Hai Phong, enhancing domestic and international trade connectivity.
As the government moves forward with a $8.37 billion railway investment, lawmakers are divided over whether to grant legal protections to project managers and officials.
