The Hopewell Project or the Bangkok Elevated Road and Train System (BERTS) was supposed to be a mega public transportation project for Bangkok, an integration of an existing main line railway, a light rail line from the old Don Muang Airport into town, a shopping centre corridor and an elevated highway on top. In 1998, the Thai government cancelled the project leaving the pillars standing with no use at all until today.
