The test run will last between three to six months

According to this plan, the period of testing will commence on September 2, 2018 and last between three to six months.

Linking Cat Linh Street in Dong Da district with Yen Nghia station in Ha Dong district, the project includes 12 stations and a depot at Phu Luong ward in Ha Dong district.

Work on the Cat Linh-Ha Dong elevated railway of a total length of more than 13 kilometers, started in October 2011 and was originally scheduled for completion in 2013. But several hurdles, including issues with the capital disbursement, have stalled the project for years.

The original estimated cost of USD 552 million has also ballooned to more than USD 868 million.
