The extension of a downtown Vientiane railway link from Thanalaeng station near the Lao-Thai Friendship Bridge to Khamsavat village in Xaysettha district may begin soon.
Lao National Railway Authority Deputy Director General Sonesack Nhansana said on Friday the Thai government had provided a grant of 10 million baht to conduct a preliminary design of the proposed 9km railway to determine the cost of such a project. http://www.vientianetimes.org.la/FreeContent/Free_Vientiane.htm
