Hai Duong proposed that the Railway Project Management Board, Ministry of Transport continue to study and adjust the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway route to ensure no overlap with industrial zones, reduce interleaved land, and avoid land waste.
Recently, the People's Committee of Hai Duong province sent a document to the Railway Project Management Board, Ministry of Transport on unifying some contents of the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway project through Hai Duong province.
To be suitable, limit the impact on the connectivity of traffic infrastructure in the industrial park, increase efficiency, avoid waste, Hai Duong Provincial People's Committee requested the Railway Project Management Board to re-study the longitudinal plan of the above-ground route through the expanded Phuc Dien Industrial Park and the plan to restore the overpass and arrange a railway access road for this industrial park, ensuring the safety of the railway when put into operation and use.
Research and adjust the route plan to ensure minimizing the land fund between the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway route and the Hanoi - Hai Phong expressway and Hai Duong City Ring Road II, in order to increase land use efficiency and avoid land waste.
It is necessary to adjust the railway line to ensure that it does not overlap with the boundary of Hoang Dieu Industrial Park (Gia Loc). Calculate, design and invest in the construction of roads connecting to the stations in the project, especially roads from the Special Economic Zone of Hai Duong province connecting to the stations, to promote the efficiency of synchronous exploitation and develop multimodal transport.
The Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh railway is planned to be 447 km long, with a gauge of 1,435 mm, passing through 10 provinces and cities, requiring an investment capital of more than 183,000 billion VND.
The section through Hai Duong is 41.5 km long, passing through 5 districts including Cam Giang (about 2.6 km), Binh Giang (about 9.3 km), Gia Loc (about 10.5 km), Tu Ky (about 11.2 km), Thanh Ha (about 7.9 km). The length of the route is about 41.5 km. The section through Hai Duong is planned to have 3 stations including: Binh Giang, Hai Duong Nam and Tu Ky.
By 2030, investment will be made in the construction of the Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong route; the Hai Phong - Quang Ninh route will be studied and implemented after 2030.
