The line will run from Haizhiyun to Template:DLM stations when fully completed. The line will be constructed in two phases: Phase 1 from Airport to Haizhiyun, and the remainder in Phase 2.

Line 3

Main article: Line 3 (Dalian Metro)

Line 3, also known as Jinzhou Eastern Line, connects the Dalian Development Zone and Template:DLM stations with Dalian city center. It is a serpentine line, mostly elevated or at grade, and runs from the Template:DLM stations to Template:DLM stations. The northern area of the city, where the Economic and Technology Development Zone is located, is not well-served by buses. The metro line beginning at the downtown commercial center (near the Template:DLM stations) runs through five administrative districts of the city and serves as an express transport between the northern (developing) region and the downtown area. The line extends northward to Template:DLM stations (Jinshitan Scenic Area), a national scenic park 50 km (31 mi) from the city center. A branch line was open on 2008 and this line connects central Dalian with Jinzhou District (金州区) with seven station from south to north. The branch line begins at Template:DLM stations and stretches northwest ending at Template:DLM stations.

All stations have side platforms. Tracks in the platform area have no ballast (gravel); however, tracks outside the station are on ballast. All stations are covered by a combination of transparent corrugated sheets and a concrete roof.

Line 12

Main article: Line 12 (Dalian Metro)

Line 12, also known as Tram Route 202 Extension Line, was opened in 2013 and connects central Dalian with Lüshunkou District.

In 2009 the Dalian government announced plans for nine metro lines spanning a total of 262.9 kilometres (163.4 mi), which would include the existing Line 3 and the branch of Line 3.

Four lines have been finalized as of 2012. The expansion project (in accordance with Chinese standards for the design and construction of metros) will use around 70 percent local labor and materials. Trains will be equipped with ATO, and stations will use an automatic fare-collection system. When lines open, they will initially operate at 38,000 p/h/d; over time, with the addition of more trains and decreasing headway, a capacity of 43,200 p/h/d is planned. The expansion program will ease traffic in Dalian (improving travel around the city for the 12th National Games of China, which will be held in Liaoning in 2013).

According to a National Development and Reform Foundation (2009) document, the urban rail transit construction plan (2009–2016) in Dalian was approved. According to the plan, the Dalian transit project is expected to invest ¥22 billion from 2009 to 2016 to build lines one through five.

  • Line 4: The line will run from Longtoushi to Yingchengzi. Proposed stations are Longtoushi, Haimao, Suoyuwan East, Suoyuwan, Dongfang Road, Jinjia Street, Jinsanjiao, Songjiang Road, Xibei Road, Jinda Street, Zelong Lake, Polytechnic University, Xinzhaizi (interchange with Line 2), Xinping Street, Yinxing Avenue, Zhoujiagou, Muchengyi Reservoir, Qianmu, Xingfucun, Yingchengzi.[2]

Long-term plan

Tickets

The lowest fare between two stations is one yuan; the fare between more than two stations is two yuan. The full fare between Dalian Station and Golden Pebble Beach is eight yuan; between Dalian Station and Jiuli the fare is seven yuan. The Pearl Card is a discounted, monthly smart card.

Rolling stock

The trains were developed and manufactured by DLoco, Dalian Locomotive and Rolling Stock Company. As of 2012, 10 trains are running on line 3 at an average speed of 60 km/h (37 mph).
