RCIC PROVIDES CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISION CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR THE NORTHERN RAILWAY STATION UPGRADING PROJECT

Accompanying the Modernization of Passenger and Freight Railway Station Infrastructure

As part of the strategy to upgrade and modernize Vietnam’s national railway system, the renovation of passenger and freight railway stations plays a vital role in enhancing transport capacity, improving service quality, and strengthening logistics connectivity in the Northern region.

RCIC is proud to participate as the Construction Supervision Consultant (CSC) for the Northern Railway Station Renovation and Upgrading Project — a significant project contributing to the improvement of railway transport and logistics infrastructure along key railway corridors in Northern Vietnam.

Project Scope

The project includes the renovation and upgrading of passenger and freight railway stations on the following railway lines:

• Hanoi – Dong Dang Railway Line;
• Gia Lam – Hai Phong Railway Line;
• Yen Vien – Lao Cai Railway Line.

Renovation and Upgrading of Three Passenger Stations

The passenger stations include:

• Gia Lam Station (Hanoi – Dong Dang Line);
• Cam Giang Station;
• Hai Duong Station (Gia Lam – Hai Phong Line).

The main works include:

• Renovation and upgrading of station buildings and associated facilities;
• Rehabilitation and upgrading of railway tracks within station areas;
• Construction and upgrading of passenger platforms;
• Renovation and installation of platform canopies;
• Improvement of technical infrastructure serving passengers and railway operations.

The upgrading of these passenger stations contributes to improving passenger services, enhancing transportation capacity, and gradually building a modern and civilized image for Vietnam’s railway stations.

Renovation and Upgrading of Four Freight Stations

The freight station works include:

• Vat Cach Station and Vat Cach Port (Gia Lam – Hai Phong Line);
• Dong Dang Station and Lang Son Station (Hanoi – Dong Dang Line);
• Xuan Giao Station (Yen Vien – Lao Cai Line).

The main project components include:

• Renovation, upgrading, and construction of warehouses and freight yards;
• Extension or addition of railway tracks and sidings within freight yards to support cargo handling operations;
• Upgrading access roads to station areas;
• Construction of operational facilities such as:
  • Operation control buildings;
  • Switchman cabins;
  • Locomotive and rolling stock preparation areas;
  • Classification yard at Vat Cach Port;
  • Internal yards and roads;
  • Signaling and telecommunications systems.

In addition, the project includes renovation and upgrading of supporting infrastructure such as:

• Fire protection and firefighting systems;
• Drainage systems;
• Protective fencing;
• Power supply and water supply systems;
• Lighting systems and related technical infrastructure.

The upgrading of these freight stations contributes to improving railway logistics capacity, increasing cargo handling efficiency, and enhancing multimodal transportation connectivity in Northern Vietnam.

RCIC’s Role in Construction Supervision Consultancy

In this project, RCIC performs construction supervision consultancy services to comprehensively control the construction process and ensure quality, progress, and safety for all project components.

RCIC’s main responsibilities include:

• Supervising the quality of construction works and technical infrastructure;
• Inspecting materials, equipment, and construction methods;
• Monitoring project implementation progress;
• Supervising occupational safety and environmental protection;
• Inspecting and certifying construction quantities and quality;
• Coordinating the resolution of technical issues arising during implementation.

As the stations remain operational during construction, the supervision consultancy work requires close coordination among operation management units, contractors, and the project owner to ensure both safe construction activities and uninterrupted railway operations.

Demonstrating Capability in Railway Construction Supervision Consultancy

Through the Northern Railway Station Renovation and Upgrading Project, RCIC continues to affirm its capability and experience in the following fields:

• Railway construction supervision consultancy;
• Supervision of station and freight yard renovation and upgrading;
• Quality and progress management for transport infrastructure projects;
• Supervision of construction works on active railway lines;
• Technical consultancy for railway transport and logistics infrastructure.

With a team of experienced engineers and experts, RCIC consistently applies modern management methods, strict technical control, and effective coordination mechanisms among all project stakeholders.

Accompanying the Sustainable Development of Vietnam’s Railway Industry

Participation in the Northern Railway Station Renovation and Upgrading Project marks another important milestone in RCIC’s ongoing contribution to the development and modernization of Vietnam’s railway sector.

The project not only enhances passenger and freight transportation capacity but also promotes logistics development, strengthens regional connectivity, and contributes to building a modern, safe, and sustainable railway transportation system for the future.
