In order for construction to start, the State Railway of Thailand( SRT) has been given instructions by the Transport Ministry to expedite the transfer of land required for the high-speed rail ( HSR ) project, which would connect three airports serving the Greater Bangkok region.
At a conference of the working group overseeing the task on Wednesday and Monday, Chayatham Phromsorn, the permanent secretary for transportation, gave the directive.
The continuous director stated that the area along the route must be cleared and given to the companies before work on building the high-speed rail line connecting Don Mueang aircraft in Bangkok, Suvarnabhumi in Samut Prakan, and U-tapao Airport in Rayong you start.
This includes the Metropolitan Waterworks Authority, the Department of Highways, and Rajvithi Home’s property holdings. Behind Ramathibodi Hospital, a hole will be built.
