So I was reading through this thinking, these reports on the planning for Beijing’s new subway lines are getting really repititive and don’t seem to be saying anything new. Then I noticed the map at the bottom: Line 7 and Phase 1 of Line 14 will both run right past my small corner of Beijing. Woohoo! And it looks like they’d both make getting into the old Outer City (Chongwen and Xuanwu Districts) much more convenient. And it seems Line 14 would make it easier for lzh to get to her favourite cheap clothing market….. uh oh….
Anyway, both lines should commence construction by the end of the year. But they’ve been saying that repeatedly for months now, and there’s only two months left till the end of the year. We shall see.
