SYSTRA GOES THE EXTRA MILE FOR HANOI METRO
The Group is renewing its contracts to supervise the design and construction of line 3 of the Hanoi metro until the end of 2027.
Line 3 of the Hanoi metro in test phase
SYSTRA’s work on line 3 of the Hanoi metro continues: the teams have signed a four-year extension to our role as Project Implementation Consultant in order to supervise and certify all the activities of the various companies involved in the project, both civil engineering and systems.
One of Systra’s most comprehensive metro assignments
Since it was launched in 2007, the Hanoi line 3 project has represented a challenge for SYSTRA: it is the largest scope of work ever obtained by the Group on its own, without any co-contractor or consortium partner. We are responsible for all areas, from preliminary studies to commissioning, including the design of stations and tunnels, the preparation of calls for tender, the analysis of bids and approval of dossiers, the review and testing of all systems including rolling stock, operating certification and the training of operating staff as Shadow operators.
Towards commissioning
Line 3 of the Hanoi metro will bring public transport closer to more than 20% of the population and link 6 of the city’s districts. This will be a real revolution for this metropolis, where demand for mobility infrastructure is high.
Line 3 has a multi-faceted profile, with an underground section leaving Hanoi station, and an overhead viaduct section. The latter will be brought into service in mid-2024, after all Hanoi metro operating staff have been trained. At the same time, underground work will continue, with the digging of the tunnels starting at the end of 2023, with a view to completion and equipping them with civil engineering and systems by 2027.
