延安路中运量公交明年1月试运行 - 2016年11月18日

BUSES to run along the city’s “medium-capacity” project on Yan’an Road are expected to carry the number 71, currently one of the key bus lines on the road, the city’s transportation commission said yesterday.

The project — to be put into operation in January — is a 17.5-kilometer trunk road connecting the districts of Huangpu, Jing’an, Minhang and Changning. Eighteen-meter-long electric buses that can carry up to 150 people will run along the route.

The project’s bus network plan has also been released to seek public opinion.
