Shenzhen Metro line


Shenzhen Metro Line 1 (formerly branded as Luobao line) runs West–East from Airport East to Luohu.[3] Line 1 is shown as green on maps, however the band on both sides of the trains is coloured red. Traditionally, it is the most heavily used metro line on the Shenzhen Metro, serving an average of 960,000 people daily in 2014.[4] It has since been surpassed by Line 5, but still averages over 1 million passengers per day as of March 2021, despite this number being under COVID measures.[1]
