Proposed by Vinbus, a subsidiary of Vingroup, the five routes would link Vinhomes Grand Park with E-mart Mall, Tan Son Nhat International Airport, Saigon Bus Station in District 1, Mien Dong Bus Station, and Vietnam National University (Photo: VNA)
About 77 electric buses would be used, with each having a capacity of 65-70 passengers. (Photo: VNA)
The suggested ticket price is 3,000 VND (0.13 USD) per trip for students and 5,000-7,000 VND for others. (Photo: VNA)
The routes are to serve the travelling demand of the public, especially in new residential areas, high-tech parks, administrative areas in Thu Duc city and those that have yet to access public transport services. (Photo: VNA)
