Summary edit

| Description | The Beijing Subway is a rapid transit rail network that serves the urban and suburban districts of Beijing municipality. With 8 lines, over 200 km of tracks and 123 stations currently in operation and ridership averaging 3.4 million per day, the Beijing Subway is the busiest in mainland China, and the second longest after the Shanghai Metro. Ridership set a daily record of 4.92 million on August 22, 2008. The existing network cannot adequately meet the city's mass transit needs and is undergoing rapid expansion. Three new lines were opened on July 19, 2008 ahead of the 2008 Olympic Games. Existing plans call for 19 lines and 561 km of tracks in operation by 2015. The Chinese government's ¥4 trillion economic stimulus package has further accelerated the timetable for subway construction. In addition to 7 lines already under construction, work is set to begin on 6 new lines in 2009, and the entire network will double in size to 420 km by 2012.[Wikipedia.org] |
