As per current plans, 49 eight-carriage trains will be put into use when the line starts operation in 2020. It will operate from 5am to 11pm, and is expected to ferry around 800,000 passengers per day.

It will connect with other major stations like Pudong Avenue, the Jing’an Temple and the Yuyuan Garden.
