Shanghai has a comprehensive city rail transit system known as the Metro, which combines subway, light rail and the Pudong Airport Maglev line. There are 8 Metro lines in all, with more under construction. Operation hours for Lines 1- 4 are 6:00-22:30, and 6:00-22:00 for Line 5. The Metro system has introduced electronic ticketing machines so visitors should carry plenty of change. Fares range from RMB2 to RMB9 depending on distance.
Visitors staying in Shanghai for some time should purchase a Shanghai Public Transportation Card, or IC card. The card can be used on the Metro, on some public buses, ferries, and even taxis. An IC card costs RMB 100 with RMB 30 deposit and RMB 70 credit. Visitors can top up the cards at any designated Metro station, bus station, bank and store.
