Beijing's first maglev line expected to operate in 2012 |
Beijing's first city low-speed maglev line S1 will begin construction on Dec. 18 this year and is expected to start test runs in 2012, according to a conference held by Beijing's Mentougou District Tuesday.
It is said that the S1 line will start from Pingguoyuan and ends at Chichang, with a length of about 10 kilometers.
The S1 line construction work involves the demolition of 11 villages in Beijing's Yongding area, including 6,428 families with 13,117 people, and the demolition area will cover 835,000 square meters. The government and local residents have reached a compensation agreement, which will allow public to review it after it is signed.
