    The Thai capital is a major tourist destination in Southeast Asia and has more
    than 8 million inhabitants in the metropolitan area. Public transport is mainly
    handled by buses and rickshaws, but also boats on the river Menam, which
    winds through the city, are an important means of transport. In 1976, the
    city presented the first plans for a metro system which included three lines,
    which together would have a length of 48 km. Due to lack of funding this
    initial project was never carried out. In the early 1990''s, the Bangkok
    Metropolitan Administration designed a mass transit network including three
    different types of metros:

    1) the elevated BTS system, the so-called Skytrain - rot fai fah in Thai
    2) the underground MRTA subway and
    3) another elevated line (BERTS) which should be built together with a major
    road project.

    So far only the first two systems are in operation:

    The Green Line (BTS-Skytrain) is an elevated automated line, similar to the


    Vancouver Skytrain, built by Siemens as a turnkey project. It is 23 km long
    and has 23 stations. It is actually operated with two lines: the Sukhumvit
    Line (16.8 km) and the Silom Line (6.3 km). Track gauge is 1,435 mm and
    power supply is via third rail at 750 V DC. 3-car trains are 65 m long, air-
    conditioned and run at an average speed of 35 kph. Both lines were
    inaugurated on 5 Dec 1999, with two stations to be opened later.

    Construction on the Blue Line (MRTA) began in August 1997. This 21 km line
    is an underground full metro with 18 stations. It finally opened in 2004.
    Further extension north from Bang Sue to Phra Nangklao Bridge (11 km
    above ground) and south from Hua Lampong to Bang Khae (13 km with 4.6
    km in tunnel) are planned.
