Metro Line 4 |
Shanghai metro line 4 is the only ring line inlocal metro network. The 'C-shaped' line from Damuqiao Rd. in Puxi (west of Huangpu River) Area to Lancun Rd. in Pudong (east of Huangpu River) New Area first opened in 2005. The whole ring has been completed and in operation since December of 2007.
Subway line 4 totals 33.6 kilometers (20.9 miles), passing 26 stations, including some at famous sights such as Indoor Stadium, Stadium, Nanpu Bridge, Century Avenue, Shanghai Railway Station and Zhongshan Park.
Now Line 4 shares a section of subway line and nine stations (Baoshan Rd., Shanghai Railway Station (North Square), Zhongtan Rd., Zhenping Rd., Caoyang Rd., Jinshajiang Rd., Zhongshan Park, West Yan'an Rd. and Hongqiao Rd.) with Line 3. However, it will become a circle of itself in the future.
