Asia Pacific Urban Rail market revenues to reach US$ 90 billion in 2020, says Frost & Sullivan with Mumbai, Shanghai and Ho Chi Minh being the biggest spenders. It is no secret that Vietnam is one of the booming economies in Asia.
With heavy traffic congestions and pollution caused by the ever growing number of vehicles on roads, Vietnam has been long looking into upgrading its urban railway infrastructure.
With the proposed projects getting a kick start with funding injected by foreign investors, it is high time that Vietnam puts a definite framework in place to expedite the implementation of proposed projects, learn from case studies across Asia, and address its indigenous design and construction challenges. And Metro Rail Vietnam will do exactly that.
Metro Rail Vietnam will:
- Provide an update on the current status of metro rail projects in Vietnam
- Forecast the future plans of the Vietnam Government in the metro rail sector
- Involve railway operators across Asia to bring key case studies that Vietnam can benefit from
- Focus on highly technical sessions on turnkey systems, rolling stock, railway safety, signals and communications from key solution providers
- Discuss design and construction challenges for Vietnam rail projects from leading consultants and engineers in Vietnam
- Analyse financing and funding procedures and plans from leading investors in Vietnam
VCCI would like to invite member companies to attend this event.
