Line 2 is an east-west line of the Shanghai Metro network. With a length of nearly 64 km, it is the second longest line in the metro system after Line 11. Line 2 runs from Template:SHM stations in the west to Template:SHM stations in the east, passing Hongqiao Airport, the Huangpu river, and the Lujiazui Financial District in Pudong. With a daily ridership of almost 1.5 million,[4] it is the Shanghai Metro's busiest metro line. The eastern portion of the line, from Template:SHM stations to Pudong International Airport, was once operated almost independently from the main segment until April 18, 2019 while through service between these two started the next day. The line is colored light green on system maps.

History

The first section of Line 2 was opened in October 28, 1999, from Template:SHM stations to Template:SHM stations. This section, which included 12 stations, totaled 16.3 kilometres (10.1 mi). A year later, Template:SHM stations was added to the eastern part of the line, adding 2.8 kilometres (1.7 mi). Four new stations, located west of the Zhongshan Park station, opened in December 2006, extending the line to Template:SHM stations. This section added 6.15 kilometres (3.82 mi) to the line. Four years later, in preparation for the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, the line was significantly expanded. In February, the Zhangjiang Hi-Tech Park station was rebuilt. In addition, another eastern segment took Line 2 to Template:SHM stations.[5][6][7] A month later, the line was extended westward to Template:SHM stations, adding 8.0 kilometres (5.0 mi) to the line including a stop at Template:SHM stations.[8] On April 8, an eastward extension added 8 stations to the line, totaling 26.6 kilometres (16.5 mi) and taking Line 2 to Template:SHM stations.[9][10] On July 1, Template:SHM stations opens to the public with the opening of the railway station of the same name.

In October 2006, it was decided to rename three stations on Line 2 by the end of the year,[11][12] adopting a new naming scheme: metro stations, unlike bus stops, are no longer supposed to be named after neighbouring vertical streets, but famous streets and sights in the vicinity, making it easier for visitors to find these places. The renamed stations are Century Avenue (formerly Dongfang Road), East Nanjing Road (formerly Middle Henan Road) and West Nanjing Road (formerly Shimen No. 1 Road).

Route

East Xujing to West Nanjing Road

The line begins at Template:SHM stations at the intersection of Xumin East Road and Zhuguang Road.[13][14] The line heads northeastward under Xumin East Road for about 0.8 kilometres (0.50 mi) before veering off the road and heading east, passing under Huaxiang Road. The line then enters the interchange station serving the Template:SHM stations.[15] This station is an interchange with Line 10. Shortly thereafter, the line enters the Template:SHM stations.[16] Line 2 then turns northward until it meets Tianshan Road and turns east again, roughly running parallel under Tianshan Road. Along this road, the line enters the Template:SHM stations,[17] Template:SHM stations,[18] and Template:SHM stations stations.[19] At the Template:SHM stations, Line 2 veers away from Tianshan Road, heading northeastward.[20] The line then enters the Template:SHM stations along Changning Road, an interchange with lines 3 and 4.[21][22] The subway line then runs parallel under Changning Road for a short distance before heading east under Yuyuan Road. Along Yuyuan Road, there is a station at Template:SHM stations, an interchange to Line 11.[23][24] East of this station, the line swerves away from Yuyuan Road and runs under Yongyuan Road, which merges into West Nanjing Road, where Line 2 enters the Template:SHM stations, an interchange to Line 7.[25] Just before entering the Template:SHM stations, the metro line veers away from West Nanjing Road to Wujiang Road.[26] Line 2 comes back under the road shortly thereafter.

West Nanjing Road to Longyang Road

Line 2 platforms at Lujiazui station

East of the Template:SHM stations, Line 2 heads eastward along West Nanjing Road, passing under the South-North Elevated Road. It then turns northeast into the Template:SHM stations,[27] and interchange with lines 1 and 8. East of the People's Square station, the subway line moves under East Nanjing Road to the Template:SHM stations.[28] Leaving the Huangpu District of Shanghai, the line heads under the Huangpu River and enters the Pudong New Area of Shanghai. The metro line passes the Oriental Pearl TV Tower and the World Finance Center near its station at Template:SHM stations. The line then runs under Century Avenue and heads southeastward to the Template:SHM stations. Line 2 then heads to the Template:SHM stations, the largest interchange station that serves lines 4, 6 and 9 as well. Line 2 continues southeastward along Century Avenue to the Template:SHM stations. From here, the line turns southward through Century Park to the Template:SHM stations. From here, the line turns southeast and then east as it enters the Template:SHM stations, an interchange with Line 7 as well as the Shanghai Maglev Train.

Longyang Road to Pudong International Airport

From the Template:SHM stations, the metro line heads eastward. Line 2 heads eastward, running under Zuchongzhi Road to the Template:SHM stations station. The line heads northeastward under Zuchongzhi Road to the Template:SHM stations and Template:SHM stations stations. Line 2 then veers away from Zuchongzhi Road and heads under the Waihuan Expressway to the Template:SHM stations and Template:SHM stations stations, turning south. Heading southward, it heads through the Template:SHM stations and turns back east, running under Chuanhuan Road. Line 2 then passes through the Template:SHM stations. Heading away from Chuanhuan Road, the metro line then enters the Template:SHM stations and Template:SHM stations stations along Huazhou Road before turning southeast. Line 2 then begins running parallel to the Shanghai Maglev Train as it runs under the Yingbin Expressway and enters the Template:SHM stations. From here, Line 2 continues south to its terminus at the Template:SHM stations, which serves Shanghai Pudong International Airport.
