All 5 lines will be covering 110 km and will cost probably around 13 billion baht =(400 million US$) and transport around 50.000 passengers a day in the first year.
The next route will be opened between Mor Chit and Pak Kred. Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) estimates that the second route bill start operations by 2012.
But the first connection had already been opened almost 2 years late.
The ride is free until August 31st. By September to December a flat fare will be implemented. From 2011 on a distance based fare system will commence.
