The consultant for HCMC’s metro line No. 2 has pulled out after negotiations to increase its fee and sign a fresh contract failed.

 

The consortium of three German companies and a Swiss and Vietnamese company said it has ended the independent consultant (IC) agreement contract after it and the HCMC Management Authority for Urban Railways (MAUR) could not agree on an appendix for renewal.

 

MAUR said in a report to the city administration that it is making preparations to invite bids for a new consultant for the Ben Thanh – Tham Luong line that will run 11 kilometers between districts 1 and 12.
