List of Nanjing Metro stations
The Nanjing Metro is a rapid transit system serving Nanjing, the capital of Jiangsu province, with stations in all of the city's eleven districts. It is constructed, maintained, and operated by the Nanjing Metro Group Company. The results of Nanjing's 2015 Municipal Bureau of Statistics count showed that Nanjing Metro carried a total of 720 million rides that year.
The idea for a metro system in Nanjing was first proposed in 1984 in the Nanjing Municipal People's Congress as a way to ease traffic concerns. An underground alignment was preferred in order to "protect the historical city's monuments and walls". Over the next few years, the city hired researchers and engineers to plan the system and to study existing metros like Hong Kong's MTR. In 1992, construction began on an experimental station in what would later become Sanshanjie station. In 1999, following the successful completion of the station's experimental phase, Nanjing became the fifth city after Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen to receive approval from the National Development and Reform Commission to begin work on a subway. Roughly one year later in December, construction on the initial line of the system broke ground.
The system spans and has 159 stations, divided between urban lines and S-train lines. There are 12 transfer stations, Andemen, Daxinggong, Gulou, Jimingsi, Jinmalu, Taifenglu, Xiangyulunan, Xinjiekou, Youfangqiao, Yuantong, Nanjing Railway Station, and Nanjing South Railway Station, with the latter two also connecting to China's nationwide conventional rail and high-speed rail network. An additional two stations connect to the Hexi tram and one serves the city's international airport. Systemwide, service begins every morning with the earliest train scheduled to depart Yushanlu station on Line 10 at 5:40 a.m. and concludes with the final train scheduled to arrive at Maigaoqiao Station on Line 1 just after 12:27 a.m. the next morning.
Lines
- Discrepancies between these figures are explained by interchange stations. If interchange stations are counted once for each line they serve, there would be 114 urban line stations, 60 S-line stations, and 174 total stations.
Line 1 is the first operating line in the Nanjing Metro system. The initial north-south segment became operational on September 3, 2005, serving 16 stops between Maigaoqiao and Olympic Stadium stations. In 2010, a 12-station, southward extension of Line 1 opened, forking the line at Andemen station; four years later, an extended western fork broke away and became Line 10. Shortly after the southern extension of Line 1 was completed, a second, east-west oriented line opened for service. While originally planned to open in phases, all 26 stations of Line 2 opened simultaneously in May 2010. That same year, groundbreaking work began for Line 3, which opened in 2015 with 29 stations. Phase one of Line 4 opened two years later in January 2017, with 18 stations spanning a length of. As of Line 4's opening, there is just under of urban metro lines in operation.
The Nanjing Metro also operates five S-train branded suburban metro lines: Line S1, Line S3, Line S7, Line S8, and Line S9. The Line S1 opened in 2014 ahead of the Nanjing 2014 Summer Youth Olympics, and connected Lukou International Airport with the rest of the metro system. Line S8 opened soon after, connecting suburban Luhe District with the metro network, with plans to eventually extend to neighboring Anhui Province. Line S3 opened in late 2017, and is the third line to cross the Yangtze River. Lines S7 and S9, respectively connecting the far southern districts of Lishui and Gaochun to Line S1, opened on May 26, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively. These three lines collectively consist of.
As of 2017, Line 5, Line 7, and a five-station northward extension of Line 1 are concurrently under construction.
Stations
The Nanjing Metro operates 159 stations across eight lines, with 106 stations on the system's five urban lines and 56 along its two S-lines. Among these are transfer stations to China's high-speed rail and conventional passenger rail network, as well as Nanjing's tramway and international airport. Additionally, the metro's expansion plans consist of one urban rail and three suburban rail lines opening within the next five years, expanding the system by an additional 64 stations, with transfer stations counted once per line.The system's largest and busiest station is Xinjiekou, the transfer station between Lines 1 and 2, with 24 officially marked exits and a floor dedicated to retail and commercial activities. Xinjiekou attracted 158,200 passengers on New Year's Eve in 2015 and 130,500 daily passengers in 2016 during China's week-long National Day holiday. The metro stations in Nanjing South Railway Station and Nanjing Railway Station carried 102,000 and 99,800 daily riders respectively during the same holiday period. Other high-ridership stations include Daxinggong, Sanshanjie, Fuzimiao, Gulou, and Xiamafang.
