Shanghai Metro Line 2 extended to Guanglan Road
The Shanghai Metro continues to expand… today sees the opening of an additional stretch of Line 2. The previous terminal station, Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park will reopen as a new underground station twice the size of the previous, overcrowded station. The two new stations are located at Jinke Road and Guanglan Road.
There’s a full service to the new stations, with trains departing Guanglan Road between 5:49 and 22:27. Guanglan Road will be the interchange station for direct metro trains to Pudong International Airport: this remaining stretch of Line 2 is expected to open before the Shanghai World Expo begins in May.
We’ve just updated ExploreShanghai online with the new stations! An update for our iPhone app is currently being reviewed by Apple and will be released soon.

Great website, great iPod Touch app, too! Congratulations!
Do you know when line 2 will open its new western bound stations (Hongqiao Airport Hub, Train Hub and East Xujing)?
Do you have a run-down of all the expected opening dates of the other lines and/or future stations, extensions, etc.? That’d be cool!
Again, great work to all! Keep it up!

Sorry I don’t have much detailed information. Line 2 West should open during March. I’ll write a blog post on the “remaining” lines shortly
