Line 8 of the
Shanghai Metro is a relatively new route which runs from
Shiguang Road through to
Yaohua Road, passing through
People's Square,
South Xizang Road and stops in-between.
Line 8 presently connects with Lines 1, 2 and 4. There is also a virtual interchange available with Line 3. Future links with other lines are expected before the Shanghai 2010 World Expo.
Line 8 is colored blue on a map and in signage. Train livery is also blue to reflect on its route color.
