Cheap Public Transportation in Shanghai

From the Economist Magazine Article here.

In Stockholm it costs $4.88 for a single journey of 10km on public transport, the highest cost in a study of 73 cities by UBS, a Swiss bank. London and Sydney are not far behind. But in Delhi it costs a mere $0.16 to make a similar journey.

       

Shanghai is right there with the cheapest (and Beijing is even cheaper).

Now very soon, Shanghai will open the other new subway lines - which will make 11 lines AND some of the others are being expanded!!!

One will be able to take the #2 line from Pu Dong International Airport on the coast to Hong Qiao Airport totally on the other side of the city!!!  Also, we will be able to take the subway/elevated train all the way up to where I work in Jia Ding Town (Jia Ding District)!!
