its first route of underground electric mass rapid transit system from Hua Lam Phong (Main Railway Station)
to Bang Sue, a total distance of 20 kilometers. The regular operation will start from July 3, 2004.
Extension projects are already formulated to extend the MRTA routes to cover 91 kms distance.
