Background: Launched in 1995, the Shanghai metro (officially known as the Shanghai Rail Transit) has evolved into one of the fastest growing rapid transit systems in the world.

Key players: The Shanghai Shentong Metro Company Limited is the developer and operator of the network. It operates the entire network through four sub-divisions – Shanghai No. 1 Metro Operation Company Limited (Lines 1, 5, 9 and 10), Shanghai No. 2 Metro Operation Company Limited (Lines 2 and 11), Shanghai No. 3 Metro Operation Company Limited (Lines 3, 4 and 7) and Shanghai No. 4 Metro Operation Company Limited (Lines 6 and 8).

Current network*: The system comprises 11 lines, which span 420 km and cover 275 stations. Table 2.1.2.6.1 provides the network details.

Global Mass Transit Research Ridership: In 2010, the system carried 1.9 billion passengers, translating into an average daily ridership of 5.2 million passengers. It set a daily ridership record of 7.55 million on October 22, 2010.

Rolling stock and technology: Overall, three major rolling stock providers – Canada-based Bombardier Transportation, Germany-based Siemens AG and France-based Alstom – have supplied the rolling stock as indicated in Table 2.1.2.6.2.

Tracks are standard gauge (1,435 mm). Power is sourced from overhead catenary (1.5 kV DC).

Table 2.1.2.6.3 provides details of the signalling system on various lines. Passenger information screens are installed on the platforms.

Fare system: Single-ride tickets and a contactless smart card, called the Shanghai Public Transportation Card (SPTC), are used for fare collection. Both are embedded with radio frequency identification (RFID) chips. While the tickets are available at vending machines at metro stations, the SPTC can be purchased and loaded at select banks, convenience stores and metro stations. The SPTC is also accepted on other transport modes such as buses and taxis.
