Zhengzhou launched the operation of Line 1, the first subway line in Henan province, on Dec 28, 2013, and this line transported 61.8 million commuters by Dec 4, 2014.
It is projected that there would be five lines in operation in Zhengzhou by 2020, and the total length of the network could reach 166.9km, according to Zhengzhou Evening News in September.
