More trees face chop for Hanoi metro
>> Hanoi to remove 500 trees for urban railway project
Hanoi plans to remove or cut down around 130 trees by the end of October this year for the construction of Nhon-Hanoi Station urban railway project.
The trees are located on Kim Ma Street running from Thu Le Zoo and the T-junction near Nui Truc Street.
Among these, 95 trees will be relocated to Vo Nguyen Giap Avenue in Dong Anh District for being taken care of; meanwhile, the remaining weak trees will be felled.
The work will be carried out from September12 to October this year.
Earlier, 109 trees were also cut down or removed to other places for the construction of the Nhon-Hanoi Station urban railway project.
To implement the entire Nhon-Hanoi Station urban railway project, as many as 500 trees in many Hanoi streets would be removed or cut down. According to the investor's initial survey; around 400 could be removed to gardens outside Hanoi for being taken care of, while the remainder are likely to be felled.
Construction on the 12-km Nhon-Hanoi Station urban railway was started in September 2010. The project, with a cost estimate of 780 million Euro (USD1.14 billion) funded by France and the Asian Development Bank, is slated for completion in 2018.
