There were some reports this week that the green line extension from Bearing to Samut Prakan would be delayed at least until 2019...I think this was the next big planned expansion opening?

Decision due in Green Line extension dispute

THE BANGKOK Metropolitan Council will tomorrow decide whether to pay for an extension of the BTS Stytrain, known as the Green Line.

The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) has asked Council to approve a budget of Bt3.55 billion to take over the extension – from Bangkok’s Bearing to Samut Prakan province – from the Mass Rapid Transit Authority of Thailand (MRTA)

The Bt3.55 billion is the first instalment of the project’s total Bt21.4 billion for infrastructure construction.
