Shanghai Metro Line 19's Northern Section Opens
Line 19 will run 46.2 km with 34 stations from Baoshan Railway Station to Hongjian Road through six districts, built to ease traffic on Pudong South Road and crowding on the southern end of line 8 and the northern ends of lines 1 and 3. The northern section from Baoshan Railway Station to Yierba Jinian Road comes first; the southern section follows in 2029 and the middle section in 2031.
- Shanghai Metro Line 19 is under construction as a north-south line planned to run 46.2 km (28.7 mi) with 34 stations between Baoshan Railway Station and Hongjian Road, through the Baoshan, Jing'an, Hongkou, Pudong, Xuhui and Minhang districts; its planned name was M9[1]
- Planned opening December 2027, for the north section only: construction between Baoshan Railway Station and Yierba Jinian Road is planned to finish and open in December 2027[1]
- The opening-history table sizes that first section at 9.2 km (5.7 mi) with 8 stations, commenced 3 Mar 2024, at an investment of 93.889 billion yuan[1]
- The south section, Shibo Avenue to Hongjian Road, is planned to finish construction in 2029 (37 km, 9 stations) and the middle section, Yierba Jinian Road to Shibo Avenue, in 2031 (17 stations); a Houtan infill station is listed with the south section[1]
- The wiki's figures do not reconcile with each other: 9.2 km north plus 37 km south already accounts for the whole 46.2 km, leaving the 17-station middle section no length, and the station list puts the final station at 44.5 km rather than 46.2 km[1]
- Purpose: "The line hopes to ease car congestion along Pudong South Road, as well as reduce crowding on the southern part of line 8, and the northern sections of lines 1 and 3"[1]
- It was announced by the Municipal government in 2016 and will interchange with lines 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 18, 20 and 23[1]
- Technical: underground and elevated, two tracks, 1,435 mm gauge, 1500 V overhead lines, 80 km/h (50 mph) operating speed, Class A 6-car trains, Chengjiang Road Depot and Tieshan Road Yard, operator TBA[1]
- The eight December 2027 stations are Baoshan Railway Station, Tietong Road, Tieshan Road, Langang Road, Taihe Road, South Jiangyang Road, East Huma Road and Yierba Jinian Road, all in Baoshan[1]
- Most recent construction news: on 5 March 2026 the tender for Civil Engineering Section 26 (Tieshan Road Yard) was issued, with a construction period of 792 days[1]
