OREANDA-NEWS. December 03, 2014. The BT contract for Fuzhou Subway Line 2 was signed, with a construction period of 1,582 days and an investment of some 7.8 billion yuan.

As Fuzhou's first BT subway line built through financing, Fuzhou Subway Line 2 will connect Fuzhou's cultural, educational and research zones, industrial zones, historical and cultural centers, and large residential zones. With a full length of 29 kilometers, the line will involve 22 stations including 6 underground-laid transfer stations. CCCC has completed initial work such as traffic renovation, green transfer, pipeline transfer and planning. Two stations: Jinxiang and Houting will break ground at the end of this month.

After its completion, the project will effectively shorten the distance between Fuzhou's eastern and western downtowns, form a "golden cross" with Subway Line 1 at the central downtown, and play a positive role in easing the passenger traffic pressure of Fuzhou's central downtown and promoting the development of Fuzhou's economy and tourism.
