THREE new interchange stations are set to open next weekend on Shanghai’s Metro Line 13 — “Expo theme line.”

The line, built to carry visitors to the 2010 World Expo, currently has only seven stations and runs from Jinyun Road in Jiading District to Jinshajiang Road in Putuo District.

Three stations that closed following the Expo are set to reopen next year, along with a number of new stops, said the Shanghai Metro Line 13 Development Co Ltd.
