On the final day of the year alone, the line carried 90,034 passengers to the city centre to enjoy New Year festivities.

In the early hours of 2026, the line continued to serve nearly 12,400 passengers, with total ridership on the first day of the new year reaching 141,000.

The figures indicate a positive shift among city residents towards the use of public transport.

Over the past year, HURC1 has diversified payment methods at stations to make services more accessible and convenient for passengers.

In 2026, the operator of Ho Chi Minh City’s first metro line aims to further improve service quality, expand connections with other urban transport modes and develop commercial services around stations.
