The Scientific and Technological Council, established by the Order of the Minister of Road and Transport of Mongolia, held its meeting on February 21, 2025. At the meeting, Council members discussed and approved the Feasibility Study for the Ulaanbaatar Metro Project developed by a consortium comprising “Dohwa Engineering” LLC, “Korea Railroad” State-Owned Company, “Korea National Railway” LLC, and “Soosung Engineering” LLC. 
It is recommended that the suggestions and recommendations from the Council members be reflected in the feasibility study and detailed engineering design of the Ulaanbaatar Metro Project. 
The Ulaanbaatar Metro Project will have a 19.4 km metro line running from Tolgoit to Unity Park, including 15 stations and a maintenance depot. Once operational, the metro is expected to carry up to 17,200 people per hour in one direction during peak hours. The consortium, including “Dohwa Engineering” LLC, “Korea Railway,” “Soosung Engineering” LLC, and “Korea National Railway” LLC, has been selected as the contractor for the consultancy services for the high-capacity public transportation system project.  
The consortium has updated the 2013 feasibility study originally developed by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). As part of this effort, six fundamental engineering and geological studies have been conducted. Specifically, geological drilling was performed at 42 locations along the proposed metro route in Ulaanbaatar, with samples collected every 500 meters at a depth of 30 meters.
