Representative of the Management Authority for Urban Railways of Ho Chi Minh City (MAUR) reported the construction progress of Ben Thanh Terminal amid the Covid-19 outbreak in line with the Municipal People’s Committee’s directives on Covid-19 prevention and control measures.
After September 15, the project will continue construction under two scenarios of “three on-site” and “one route – two destinations” models. In the upcoming time, contractors will complete its sub-projects of architecture, mechanical and electrical (M&E) systems, concreting at the terminals, and check and receive equipment.

With a dual plan of building the project and strictly complying with Covid-19 prevention and control measures, MAUR proposed the Municipal Department of Transport to grant travel passes for vehicles carrying construction materials, equipment and concrete mixer trucks for the project's implementation. Besides, the unit also suggested the plan of vaccination for all experts, engineers and workers on the construction sites.

The project progress has reached around 87.52 percent.

The Ministry of Construction highly appreciated the efforts of MAUR and relevant units with over 200 workers in the context of the current Covid-19 pandemic outbreak.
