The Shanghai Metro (Traditional Chinese: 上海軌道交通; Simplified Chinese: 上海轨道交通; pinyin: Shànghăi Guĭdào Jiāotōng) is an urban rapid transit system that serves the city of Shanghai by transporting around 1.8 million passengers each day. The system incorporates both subways (地铁) and elevated light railways (轻轨). As new metro lines are opened, passenger volumes are expected to rise significantly. It is the third city in China to build a subway system after Beijing and Tianjin and as of October 2007 is tied with Beijing subway system with most lines in operation in mainland China. One of the world's newest, most rapidly expanding subway systems, the Shanghai Metro operates five lines, and has four more new lines under construction, along with extensions to the lines currently in operation. Three of the new lines will open in late 2007, along with the final four stations needed to complete the Line 4 loop of the city core[1].

Criticism

The system is marred by aggressive passengers who exacerbate the already crowded rush hour conditions. To deal with congestion and passenger safety, platform screen doors are being fitted to platforms. Platform Screen Doors full-height, Paris - Line 14 - St. ...


Transfers are inconvenient compared to urban transport systems elsewhere. For example, stations that share the same name on different lines are often hundreds of meters apart. Transferring between different lines frequently requires walking through numerous tunnels.


In many stations, the retail section would appear to dominate the station concourse. The Xujiahui station houses three restaurants, a sushi establishment, a salon, a shoe store, a bookstore, a teahouse, an art dealer, more than twenty trinket shops no larger than 2 m² each and a 500 meter long underground shopping arcade with dozens of stores, mostly selling women's and girls' clothing and shoes. The result can be disorientating for casual visitors attempting to access the platforms. The only other stations with such a shopping selection are Shanghai Railway station (in the transfer corridor) and the Milan Plaza arcade in Zhongshan Park station. Xujiahui is an area in the Xuhui District of Shanghai, China and the name of a metro station in this area. ...


The Metro operators have responded to some criticism. For example, in the People's Square station, the transfer corridor between two lines has been stripped of retail space and shortened to deal with congestion and reduce the hassle of commuters.


Technology

Inside a train

In contrast to many other metro systems in the world, the Shanghai metro uses overhead wires for the power supply, probably due to its use of a 1500 volt system which is twice the voltage generally used for third rails. Standard gauge is used throughout the network, allowing new metro equipment to be transported over the Chinese rail network which uses the same gauge.

Plasma screens on the platforms show passengers when the next two trains are coming (usually one every five minutes or less), along with advertisements and public service announcements. The subway cars contain LCD screens showing advertisements and on some lines, the next stop, while above-ground trains have LED screens showing the next stop. There are recorded messages stating the next stop in Mandarin and English, but the messages stating nearby attractions/shops for a given stop (a form of paid advertising) are in Mandarin only. “LCD” redirects here. ... “LED” redirects here. ...
