The '''MRT Pink Line''' ({{langx|th|รถไฟฟ้ามหานคร สายสีชมพู}}) or '''MRT Wiwat Nakhon Line''' ({{langx|th|รถไฟฟ้ามหานคร สายวิวัฒน์นคร}}) is an elevated monorail line of the MRT in Bangkok and Nonthaburi Province, Thailand.

The line is designed to link the northern areas of Bangkok and Nonthaburi by connecting with three existing and three future mass transit lines. At Nonthaburi Civic Center the line interchanges with the MRT Purple Line and the proposed MRT Brown Line. The line also interchanges with the SRT Dark Red Line, the BTS Sukhumvit Line and the planned BMA Grey Line. At the Min Buri terminus, the line interchanges with the MRT Orange Line.

Construction of the Pink Line began in December 2017. In October 2020, the BSR consortium stated that they aimed to open the first section of the Pink Line by October 2021, with services initially operating from Min Buri (PK30) to Government Complex (PK12). The complete line was originally set to be fully open by June 2022.<ref name="prachachat.net">{{cite news |title=เปิดไทม์ไลน์-ค่าตั๋ว รถไฟฟ้าไร้คนขับ "สายสีชมพู-เหลือง"|url=https://www.prachachat.net/property/news-530591 |newspaper=Prachachat |date=1 October 2020}}</ref> However, the outbreak of COVID-19 in Bangkok and changes to station locations delayed the opening date.

==Route alignment== {{Unreferenced section|date=October 2024}} The line begins at Nonthaburi Civic Center near Khae Rai Junction, Nonthaburi Province, in the northwest of Greater Bangkok. The line then heads north along Tiwanon Road to Pak Kret Intersection, Pak Kret District, before turning east to run along Chaeng Watthana road. It interchanges with the SRT Dark Red Line at Lak Si Station and passes over Vibhavadi Rangsit Road running east through the Ram Intra intersection and the Lak Si Monument in Bang Khen District, where it crosses under the BTS Sukhumvit Line and interchanges with Wat Phra Sri Mahathat. The line then continues farther east along Ram Inthra Road to the northeast of Bangkok before terminating at Min Buri station where it will interchange with the MRT Orange Line once the line open.

==History== The Pink Line was first proposed in 2005 by the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning as a heavy rail underground line. It was changed to a monorail line in 2008 to reduce construction costs. The director-general of the Office of Transport and Traffic Policy and Planning had previously stated in an interview that the Pink Line was considered a priority scheme to be completed by 2017–18, as it ran past the then recently opened Bangkok Government Complex.<ref>"Mrt pink line route takes step forward" Bangkok Post 5 April 2010</ref> A review was undertaken in early 2012 to reconsider the heavy rail option, but cost restraints prevailed and the Office decided to continue with the monorail plan. The review of the line did result, however, in the addition of 6 new stations. The environmental impact assessment for the Pink Line was finalized in late 2012. In October 2012, members of the new government requested to extend the planned line east by {{Cvt|3.4|km}} beyond the Min Buri terminus to Nong Chok.<ref>{{cite news |title=Pheu Thai seeks revision of MRT Pink Line |url=https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/politics/315493/thai-government-wants-new-plan-for-bangkok-mrt-line-underground-train|newspaper=Bangkok Post |date=4 October 2012}}</ref> However, this extension of the line was not approved. The expected cost of the line in 2012 with the additional 6 extra stations was 55 billion baht.<ref>'[http://www.prachachat.net/news_detail.php?newsid=1352107453&grpid=00&catid=07&subcatid=0700 รฟม.แบ่งเค้กรถไฟฟ้า2สายลงตัว "สีเขียว-ชมพู"ลงทุนร่วมแสนล้าน'], ''Prachachat News'', 6 November 2012.</ref>

The Pink line was due to be tendered in the third quarter of 2013 with construction due to commence in early 2014.<ref>"Cabinet to mull rail projects" Bangkok Post, 26 February 2013</ref> However, delays in preparation of the tender in relation to the selection of monorail rolling stock and political protests resulting in a snap national election in early Feb 2014 further delayed the Pink Line tender.<ref>"{{cite web|url=http://www.thaipost.net/news/121213/83272 |title=ยุบสภาฉุดพ.ร.บ.2ล้านล.สะดุด โครงการรถไฟฟ้าชะงัก สนข.ยันเดินหน้าตั๋วร่วม | ไทยโพสต์ |access-date=2014-07-18 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131216190511/http://www.thaipost.net/news/121213/83272 |archive-date=2013-12-16 }}"</ref> A coup in May 2014 resulted in a new military administration and the tender being deferred while a review of all mass transit projects was undertaken for a period of 18 months. The Pink line tender was then changed to a PPP tender process which was not released until mid 2016.

The BSR consortium consisting of BTS Group Holdings (75% majority stake) with Sino-Thai Engineering and Construction (STEC), and Ratch Group (RATCH) won the bid in early December 2016 to construct and operate the Pink Line.<ref>{{cite news |title=BSR Joint venture wins rights for Bangkok's Yellow, Pink line MRTA construction |url=http://www.bangkokpost.com/archive/joint-venture-wins-rights-for-yellow-pink-line-construction/1153213 |newspaper=Bangkok Post |date=7 December 2016}}</ref> The BSR consortium won the bid for a 30-year concession operate the line and also won the bid to build and operate the MRT Yellow Line.

===Muang Thong Thani Line history=== In 2016, a proposal was made to link Muang Thong Thani to the then-proposed MRT Pink Line. Accordingly, BSR Joint Venture—the consortium led by BTS Group Holdings which had won the bid to construct and operate the line—proposed a {{Cvt|2.8|km}}, two-station spur monorail route to link to Impact, Muang Thong Thani from what was then Si Rat station (now Muang Thong Thani MRT station; the names were later switched).<ref name="The Nation">{{Cite news|url=https://www.nationthailand.com/news/business/EconomyAndTourism/30318283|title=Junta to call bids for most infra projects - The Nation|work=The Nation|access-date=2017-06-17|language=en|archive-date=2018-09-08|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180908034043/http://www.nationmultimedia.com/news/business/EconomyAndTourism/30318283|url-status=live}}</ref> The two stations were to be located adjacent to the Impact Challenger building, and near Muang Thong Thani Lake and the Impact Forum.

===Muang Thong Thani Line route=== The Muang Thong Thani spur line branches off from the main Pink Line at Muang Thong Thani MRT station on Chaeng Watthana Road, where it is served by a single platform. It turns into Soi Chaengwattana-Pak Kret 39 (one of the main roads into Mueang Thong Thani) and climbs above the Udon Ratthaya Expressway to run between its two sides, along the median of Soi Chaengwattana-Pak Kret 39, Impact Muang Thong Thani station then passes above the expressway again before terminating at Lake Muang Thong Thani station. Like the main line, the Muang Thong Thani line is dual track, with switches near the Muang Thong Thani and Lake Muang Thong Thani stations to facilitate turnbacks.

== Technical == The line operates using the Alstom Innovia Monorail 300 rolling stock, configured in four-car trainsets. It is equipped with Bombardier Transportation’s CITYFLO 650 communications-based train control (CBTC) system. This enables fully automated, driverless operation at ATO Grade of Automation 4 (GoA 4), also known as Unattended Train Operation (UTO), supported by integrated subsystems including Automatic Train Protection (ATP), Automatic Train Supervision (ATS), and Computer-Based Interlocking (CBI).<ref>{{Cite web |last=Nilecon |title=รถไฟฟ้ามหานคร สายวิวัฒน์นคร (สายสีชมพู) (The Skytrains) |url=https://www.nbm.co.th/ |access-date=2026-03-25 |website=รถไฟฟ้ามหานคร สายวิวัฒน์นคร (สายสีชมพู) (The Sky trains) |language=en}}</ref>
