MRT Grey Line

The MRT Grey Line (Vatcharapol - Lat Phrao - Rama IV - Rama IX Bridge) is one of the planned metro routes in Bangkok, Thailand. Its path runs along the north - south axis. This line is to support the growth of residential areas around Pradit Manutham Rd. and the Sathupradit area in Yan Nawa District. The route runs from Ram Indra Road, on the northeast outskirts of Bangkok, down south through Pradit Manuthum Rd. along the Chalongrat Expressway going into the downtown district of Thong Lo. From there, it passes through Sukhumvit Rd., Rama IV Rd., and Ratchadapisek - Rama 3 Rd. It ends at The Rama IX Bridge in the south of the downtown Bangkok. The total distance of the route is approximately 26 km and is expected to service 340,000 passengers per day. The project and construction is expected to terminate in the year of 2029.

Progress

The new Yingluck Shinawatra led government, who replaced the Abhisit Vejjajiva led government, has decided not to pursue plans to continue the MRT Grey Line and the MRT Light Blue Line, citing that the lines are not feasible within their 4 years 10 lines rush plan and that if the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration plan to pursue it, the BMA must find funding on its own. ^[1]
