expansion

According to the latest reports, the city of Nanjing plans to complete a total of 17 lines by 2030.

• A western extension of Line 1, which is to cross the Yangtze , is currently being built. This line will have a length of approximately 14.4 kilometers and eight underground stations. There are plans for a northern extension, extending the line north to Yanziji . The first phase of the expansion will be five kilometers long with four above-ground stations.

• Construction on Line 3 began in January 2010. This new line with a north-south orientation will be approximately 40.19 kilometers long and have 28 underground stations.

Ticket system

As in many subway systems around the world, fares are distance dependent. Fares range from 2 yuan (approximately US $ 0.30) for trips with fewer than eight stops to 4 yuan for longer trips. There is a five percent discount for Nanjing Public Utility IC Card users .

In addition to single tickets, tickets can also be paid for with the Nanjing Public Utility IC Card or Jinlintong ( Chinese  {{{c}}} , Pinyin Jīnlíngtōng ). It can be purchased for a refundable fee of 25 yuan (approximately US $ 3.80) and topped up at ticket counters in subway stations and collaborating hypermarkets around the city. The card can also be used to pay for other public transport such as city taxis or city buses.

vehicles

• 20 six-car trains from Alstom and the Nanjing Puzhen rail vehicle plant, ordered in 2002 for the commissioning of Line 1.
• 21 six-car trains from Alstom and the Nanjing Puzhen rail vehicle plant, ordered in January 2008 for the extension of Line 1.
• 144 trains from Alstom and the Nanjing Puzhen rail vehicle plant, ordered in 2007 for line 2.

Signal system

Siemens Mobility was given a supply contract for Line 1 in November 2002.

For Line 2, Siemens Mobility and its local partner Nanjing Research Institute of Electronic Technology (NRIET) have received the order to supply the signaling system after they have signed a contract worth around 25 million euros. The technologies that are used include Trainguard MT, Vicos OC 501, Sicas ECC and the Az S 350 U axis counting system.
