It will also offer other public transportation choices to passengers such as the metro line No.1, rapid bus service to Binh Duong and other buses and taxis.
Speaking at the event, Vice Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Le Van Khoa said the station will be connected with a high-rise parking area, repair and filling station area, trade and services area.
He asked the municipal departments and agencies to offer all possible support to the project, making it operational later this year with ensured quality. - VNA
