So I heard that Kunming is building a subway. Very cool! Do we know yet what the routes will be?

Any major street with blue sheet metal up is a route, except for all that stuff going up around Green Lake.

Line 6 from the east bus station to the new airport opened last week along with the new airport.

The East Bus Station and Airport Metro stations have large maps up showing all the lines being built and those that are planned for later (in transparent). I was surprised to see a station being considered for the end of my street (off XueFuLu). Let's hope it materialises someday.

Most likely it's the number one line from Chenggong, but I can't confirm that. I notice the article makes an error right from the start claiming it's the first line to be built, when the number 6 line went into operation 11 months ago. The reporter may have made the assumption that number one line equals first line.

You're right. I've just checked Baidu Maps and there's a red line in Chenggong

Meanwhile, the number 6 line was only open to the east bus station, but according to the maps it's supposed to join up with that number 1 line. Does anybody know if that has happened?
