Airport Rail Link to be extended to connect Suvarnabhumi airport with Don Mueang airport & U-Tapao airport in Rayong, according to Transport Minister Prajin Juntong, said on Thursday. Work on the extension will begin with a 22-kilometre-long link from Phaya Thai to Don Mueang, he said. The estimated cost of this section was 29 billion baht. The National Environmental Board already approved the plan, but the cabinet had yet to endorse it, ACM Prajin said. For the 190km extension to U-Tapao, which is now rated an international airport, the minister said transport authorities would have to discuss it with the Royal Thai Navy, which supervises the airport. He expected the talks to be concluded in the second half of next year.
