context_page_description: The Hanoi Metro is a rapid transit system under construction in Hanoi, the capital city of Vietnam.
  The system will include elevated and underground sections, and will be operated by Hanoi Metro Company. It will be Vietnam's first rapid transit system.
  The first phase of the system is composed of two sections: Line 2A from Cat Linh to Ha Dong and Line 3 from Nhon to Hanoi Station, expected to commence operations in late 2019 and 2023, respectively. The construction period has been beset with financial difficulties, slow construction progress and industrial accidents.
  The system will eventually consist of 8 lines with a total length of 318 km, and is initially expected to carry 200,000 passengers per day.
  In 2017, Tokyo Metro opened its affiliate in Hanoi, which is set to be the service operator.
