Abstract
The rapid and large-scale construction of urban rail transit in China in recent years has drawn worldwide attention. The progress report and analysis would be a good reference for regional urban transit planning and policy, and for financial investment and service improvement in future. This paper offers a high-level summary of infrastructure statistics. In particular, this paper reviewed the spatial service coverage, passenger service performance and operational efficiency of urban rail transit in Mainland China and analyzed the development characteristics, such as the developing scales and multi-type urban rail transit modes based on the Annual Report of the China Urban Mass Transit work from 2008 to 2015. Suggestions and trends for further development of urban rail transit in China are proposed.
