Near-total restoration of Metro operations today

SHANGHAI’S subway operation will be almost fully restored from today, when six suspended stations reopen.

Apart from the Shanghai Circuit Station of Metro Line 11, which will remain suspended, the city’s 20 Metro lines will resume normal operations and services from this morning, according to the city’s Metro operator Shentong.

Six stations of Metro Line 2 and 11 which were closed for COVID-19 prevention and control will re-open. They are: Line 2’s East Xujing Road Station, Hongqiao Railway Station and Hongqiao Airport T2 Terminal Station, along with the Line 11’s Huaqiao, Guangming Road and Zhaofeng Road stations — in neighboring Kunshan, Jiangsu Province.

There will be no additional requirement for Metro riders traveling between Shanghai and Kunshan, apart from another temperature check when they exit the Metro stations.

The city’s Metro network was partly suspended at the end of March after Shanghai initiated its phased lockdown for Pudong and Puxi after the COVID-19 pandemic resurgence.
