The Pudong Airport APM uses Type A cars with a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour. The main line supplies power to the third rail, and in the depot power is supplied using overhead wires.

Shanghai Pudong Airport APM is an automated people mover in the Pudong International Airport. In the initial phase, there are two lines, each connecting a terminal building and a satellite hall. The two lines are planned to be connected after the completion of Terminal 3 in the future. The line uses 4-car Type A metro trains, there is reservation to use 5-car Type A metro trains.[2]

Route

The east line of the APM starts from Terminal 2 to S2 Satellite Hall, and extends to the T3 terminal station in the long term. They are all platforms on one island side on the first basement level. The main line is 2.16 kilometers long (the operating section is 1,652 meters long). The west link (S2-vehicle base) is 2.0 kilometers.

The APM West Line starts from Terminal 1 to S1 Satellite Hall, and extends to the T3 terminal station in the long-term. They are all platforms on the one-island side of the basement level. The main line is 2.37 kilometers long (the operating section is 1,861 meters long) to the east. The tie line (S1-T3) is 713.22 meters.[3]

Both S1 and S2 are connected together and are since the opening in September 2019 connected by an 7.8km underground automated people mover to the current T1 and T2 terminals operated by Shanghai Keolis for 20 years,[4][5] including the East Line and the West Line.

Technology

It will be equipped with CBTC technology, which enables operations at higher frequencies and speeds in total safety - with or without a driver. In the case of the Pudong airport line, this metro will have a driver on-board (GoA2 operation). The service headway at peak hours will be 4 to 5 minutes and 10 minutes during off-peak hours.

FITSCO signaling realizes the functions of stable arrival, precise alignment, parking, unattended automatic return, automatic shuttle mode and unattended automatic storage in the main line under ATO control. The train is sent to the storage area to sleep in an unmanned and fully automated way, it is woken up remotely on ATS, runs the pre-departure test, and automatically enters the service platform to reduce the operation intensity and meet the requirements of airport security management.

Vehicles

The Pudong Airport APM uses Type A cars with a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour. The main line supplies power to the third rail, and in the depot power is supplied using overhead wires. Built by the Chinese manufacturer CRRC, the metro train sets are 94 metres long and can carry 800 passengers. Each train has four compartments, two for domestic flight passengers and the rest for international flight travelers. There are isolation doors between the carriages to separate the two types of passengers, and the platform is also be equipped with physical barriers. In order to prevent passengers from going to the wrong boarding gate, there are ticket inspectors in the passenger compartments of passengers going to the satellite hall to take international flights. Passengers must present their boarding pass with the initials "G" or "H" at the boarding gate before they can board the car. Passengers taking domestic flights do not have ticket inspectors, and even if they go to the wrong satellite hall boarding gate, they can take the APM back to the terminal.[6]

Screens for flight information and luggage racks have been installed. It is designed to transport 9,000 passengers per hour during peak periods with an interval of about two minutes. A ride between a terminal and its satellite will take 2.5 minutes. It adopts double-line shuttle operation mode.
