Description
editWujiang ART Demonstration Line T1 begins at the Tongli station on Suzhou Metro line 4. From here, the line extends 5.1 kilometres (3.2 mi) along Tongjin Avenue, Yunli Road, Damiao Road, and Chongben Road, to a terminus on the northern edge of the town of Tongli. The two termini are the only operational stations on the line as of 2026[update], with three more infill stations planned.[2] The line replaced the previous shuttle bus service between the metro station and the town. The line uses 3-section CRRC ART vehicles, with a maximum capacity of 307 passengers.
