Right at the entrance is a place where passengers' tickets are controlled. Ticket vending machines and automatic toll gates will be installed next to this area. Next to it is the ticket office and security monitoring, the work of the station staff is basically complete.
Behind the ticket gate are stairs and escalators leading down to the second floor, also known as the station floor. The entire station has 2 elevators, stairs and escalators for guests, which are in the process of being installed.
Elevators leading down to four underground floors of Ben Thanh station have been installed. According to the design, the first two floors will be used for the first Metro line. The remaining two floors are for Metro Line 2 (Ben Thanh - Tham Luong) and the following lines.
At the second floor is where the train stops, stops to pick up and drop off passengers. Two tracks run parallel between Ben Thanh station and the Opera House, each side is 660 m long and 1.4 m wide. On the outer wall, there are signs to guide the train route, and there are also cells to install advertising boards. In the near future, the area will be installed with passenger doors.
The floor of the underground station is paved with cement tiles and designed with yellow walkways for people with disabilities.
The highlight of Ben Thanh underground station is a skylight 6 m high, 21.6 m in diameter, designed in the shape of a lotus flower. The well has the function of providing light for the bottom of the station.
The contractor said that the next time will tile the steps around the well, the floor, decorate more trees. This place also creates an open space, allowing metro passengers to see directly through Ben Thanh market.
Technical room is the place to install ventilation, pump, electricity, refrigeration system... to ensure the operation of underground station.
