Long-term planning

In December 2020, Chengdu Municipal Bureau of Planning and Natural Resources announced the long-term planning including Lines 1-33, D1-D6 and S1-S19.[103]

Fares

Single ride card

Single Ride Card is an IC card for one trip. Riders can buy it through attendants in station's Service Centers or use ticket-vending machines. One ticket allows only one rider in with validity of the same day. If riders have not used the Single Ride Card, they may refund it at the same day at the same station.[104]

From its opening until 1 June 2017, Chengdu Metro used a fare system based on station counts.[105] With a 2-hour grace period in the subway system.[106] In October 2016, Chengdu Metro held public meeting for price changing issues and set new pricing plans.[107]

From 2 June 2017, Chengdu Metro starts new fare system based on distance.[108]

Distance (km) Distance to next price level (km) Total Price (CNY 元)
0～4 4 ¥2
4～8 4 ¥3
8～12 4 ¥4
12～18 6 ¥5
18～24 6 ¥6
24～32 8 ¥7
32～40 8 ¥8
40～50 10 ¥9
When the trip is longer than 50 km, each additional 20 km requires another ¥1
Each rider has a 3-hour grace period in the system.

Reloadable IC cards

The Tianfutong Pass is a reloadable IC Card accepted by the Chengdu Metro.[109] Normal Tianfutong Passes provide 10% discounts. Student Tianfutong Passes provide 50% discounts. Senior Tianfutong Passes have special discounts depending on time of use.[110][109] Additionally, passengers can pay for single rides directly using Debit IC cards offered by participating banks.[111][112]

Train types and technology

All "standard" Chengdu Metro lines in operation run on 1,500 V DC supplied by overhead lines.[113][114][115] Express lines meanwhile run on 25 kV AC to get to top speed quicker. Trains on Lines 3, 4, 7, 10 and some of the newer Line 2 trains have a Golden Sun Bird insignia. New trains are equipped with LCD passenger information systems.

Script error: No such module "Multiple image".

Signalling system

All Chengdu Metro lines are equipped with CBTC.[116] Chengdu Metro Line 1, which opened to traffic in 2010, used a CBTC signaling system provided by Zhejiang Zhonghe Technology, a subsidiary of Zhejiang University,[117] in collaboration with Ansaldo STS.[118] This system is also used on Chengdu Metro Line 6[119] and 10.[120] Chengdu Metro Line 3, which opened in 2016, was one of the first adoptions of a domestic CBTC signal system implementation by Beijing Traffic Control Technology.[121] Beijing Traffic Control Technology's CBTC system is also used in Line 5.[122] Alstom's Urbalis 888 CBTC signal system in collaboration with CASCO is used on Line 18, 19, Chengdu Light Rail Line 2 and the fully automated GoA4 Line 9.[123]

Type A trains

In response to congestion and high ridership, Lines 7, 8 and 10 are equipped with higher capacity 6-car aluminum alloy Type A trains. The total length of Script error: No such module "convert". and width is Script error: No such module "convert".. All trains have a maximum operating speed of Script error: No such module "convert".. The capacity of a 6-car train is 1,828 passengers with a crush load capacity of 2,488 passengers. Line 7 trains are designed and managed by CRRC Qingdao Sifang with CRRC Chengdu performing manufacturing and assembly.[124] Lines 5, 6 and 9 are equipped with even higher capacity eight car aluminum alloy Type A trains. The capacity of an eight car trainset is 2,480 passengers with a crush load capacity of 3,456 passengers.[125]

Type B trains

Lines 1, 2, 3 and 4 use six car stainless steel Type B trains with a total length of Script error: No such module "convert". and width Script error: No such module "convert".. The capacity of each train set is 1,460 people with a crush load capacity of 1,880 passengers.[126] All trains have a maximum operating speed of Script error: No such module "convert".. Lines 1 and 2 use CRRC Qingdao Sifang and CRRC Chengdu trains.[127] Trains on Line 3 and 4 are manufactured by CRRC Changchun Railway Vehicles and CRRC Chengdu.[128] In 2008, Chengdu Metro in anticipation of the opening of Line 1, purchased and initial order of 17 six car trains sets from CRRC Qingdao Sifang.[129] In April 2011, a further order was announced for trains from CRRC for Line 2, taking the total to 59 six car sets.[130]

Light rail trains

Currently, only Chengdu Light Rail Line 2 is in operation. Light Rail Line 2 uses low floor light rail trains provided by domestic manufacturer CRRC. The tram system uses light rail trains, of each having 5 cars and 8 doors. Chengdu Light Rail Line R2 opened to public on 26 December 2018 and extended on 27 December 2019. It is Script error: No such module "convert". long, with 35 stations (47 station when completed). In early 2020, this line is included in the latest Chengdu Metro's official system map.[131][132][133]

Other rail transit

High-speed intercity rail

There are also two high-speed intercity railways in Chengdu, not part of Chengdu Metro system: the Chengdu–Dujiangyan intercity railway and Chengdu–Pujiang intercity railway. They are operated by Chengdu Metropolitan Railway Company Limited, which is China's first joint venture between a local government and China's national rail operator. The city and the Ministry of Railways worked together in building high-speed intercity rail lines.[134]
