According to the Pre-Feasibility Study Report of the North-South High-Speed Railway Project, the latest research results of the consulting consortium TEDI - TRICC - TEDI SOUTH have shortened the route length by about 4 km compared to the plan submitted in 2019.
The high-speed railway route is expected to pass through 20 provinces and cities with a total length of about 1,541 km, including 23 passenger stations and 5 freight stations.
After Nam Dinh station, the route goes towards Ninh Binh, crossing the Day River in the eastern area of Khanh Phu industrial park (Ninh Binh city). After intersecting with National Highway 10, the route runs parallel to the east of the expressway.
Ninh Binh station is located in Khanh Thuong commune, Yen Mo district, about 1 km east of Mai Son intersection, 7.5 km south of Ninh Binh city center and Ninh Binh station on the current railway line.
Next, the route goes straight to the South, crosses Yen Thang Lake, avoids Dong Thai Lake eco-tourism area, then goes through the mountain through Tam Diep tunnel into Thanh Hoa province.
Mr. Nguyen Cao Son - Vice Chairman of Ninh Binh Provincial People's Committee - said that the location of the high-speed railway station in Ninh Binh has been planned in accordance with the planning of Yen Mo district as well as the general planning of Ninh Binh province.
