Line 14 (Shenzhen Metro)

Line 14 (simplified Chinese: 十四号线; traditional Chinese: 十四號線; pinyin: Shísì Hàoxiàn; Jyutping: Sap6 Si3 Hou6 Sin3) of the Shenzhen Metro is an express rapid transit line in Shenzhen. It runs southwest–northeast from Gangxia North in Futian District to Shatian in Pingshan District. Line 14 is envisioned as an urban express line with higher operating top speeds and wider stop spacings, additionally Line 14 serves as the express relief line to the congested Line 3. The line is equipped with automatic train operation using high capacity 8 car type A trains. To improve journey times a number of express and direct express runs (which only run bound for Gangxia North in the AM peak) were introduced in December.
