In line with all the changes happening every day in our bustling city, Saigon will officially launch its first river bus route in October. 🚤

This new service will allow passengers to travel from Bach Dang wharf in District 1 to Linh Dong Ward in Thu Duc District on a 30-mn and 10.8 km-long journey (nearly 7 miles) along the Saigon River and Thanh Da canal. All together there will be 9 river stations in D1, D2, Binh Thanh to Thu Duc District in the north of the city.

A second route is scheduled to open in 2018, connecting Bach Dang wharf to District 8.  The Department of Transportation said after the two first routes are completed and running smoothly, a third route could connect District 1 to Phu My Hung in District 7, but no precise schedule has been announced.

✅  Ubiquest is looking forward to test this river bus service and use it to create new urban game experiences!
