The project involves upgrading of the following three stations Upgrading of the three YCR stations will promote use of the Yangon Circular Railway (YCR): of sustainable low carbon public transportation •Shan Lann Station system; support small and medium enterprises (SMEs); •Hantharwaddy Station improve safety, comfort and level of service to •Kyoe Gone Station passengers; and encourage use of PPP scheme.

Myanmar Railways intends to develop public spaces around key YCR stations following transit-oriented development (TOD) principles with effective land value capture (LVC) and mobilization of private capital to increase the economic and financial viability of YCR and maximize the local accessibility benefits of a mass transit system.

The YCR Line was established in 1954 and has been supporting Yangon City’s public transportation for the past 60 years.
