In 2009 the Dalian government announced plans for nine metro lines spanning a total of 262.9 kilometres (163.4 mi),which would include the existing Line 3 and the branch of Line 3.
Four lines have been finalized as of 2012. The expansion project (in accordance with Chinese standards for the design and construction of metros) will use around 70 percent local labor and materials. Trains will be equipped with ATO,and stations will use an automatic fare-collection system. When lines open,they will initially operate at 38,000 p/h/d; over time,with the addition of more trains and decreasing headway,a capacity of 43,200 p/h/d is planned. The expansion program will ease traffic in Dalian (improving travel around the city for the 12th National Games of China,which will be held in Liaoning in 2013).
According to a National Development and Reform Foundation (2009) document,the urban rail transit construction plan (2009–2016) in Dalian was approved. According to the plan,the Dalian transit project is expected to invest ¥22 billion from 2009 to 2016 to build lines 1-5.
The lowest fare between two stations is one yuan;the fare between more than two stations is two yuan. The full fare between Dalian Station and Golden Pebble Beach is eight yuan;between Dalian Station and Jiuli the fare is seven yuan. The Pearl Card is a discounted,monthly smart card.
The trains were developed and manufactured by DLoco,Dalian Locomotive and Rolling Stock Company. As of 2012,10 trains are running on line 3 at an average speed of 60 km/h (37 mph).
Dalian Metro ordered 38 type B trainsets in six-car formations. 18 and 20 sets will run on the future lines 1 and 2 respectively. They will have a similar lightweight,corrosion-resistant stainless-steel body. The design speed is set to 80 km/h (50 mph);each train will have a capacity of 1,440 passengers. [9]
