13号线淮海路站将成上海最深地铁站   2015-05-21

 

FOR some commuters on Metro Line 13, it will be one long ride down the escalators to reach the subway station.

The under-construction Huaihai Road M. Station is — for the time being at least — the deepest subway after workers dug 33 meters beneath the ground, officials said yesterday. It is also the latest major development work to exploit the underground space.

The station, coming up near Ruijin Road, will be on Level Six below the ground to avoid Line 1. The area is also one of the busiest commercial roads in the city, Shanghai’s construction authority said yesterday.
