The lines will stretch about 303.5 km and link Noi Bai International Airport, Hanoi Station and major urban districts.

A consortium of Vinhomes and VinSpeed, both part of Vingroup, Vietnam's largest private conglomerate controlled by Vuong, will serve as the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor for all five.

VinSpeed, founded in 2025, is already building the Ben Thanh-Can Gio line in Ho Chi Minh City and broke ground in April on a high-speed line connecting Hanoi with the Ha Long Bay region.

The five Hanoi metro lines vary widely in scale.
