New Taipei Metro (Chinese: 新北捷運; pinyin: Xīnběi Jiéyùn; Zhuyin Fuhao: ㄒㄧㄣ ㄅㄟˇ ㄐㄧㄝˊ ㄩㄣˋ) is a transit system serving New Taipei, Taiwan, operated by New Taipei Metro Corporation [zh]. The Circular line, Danhai light rail, and Ankeng light rail are currently in operation, while the Sanying line is under construction. There are many other lines in various stages of planning, such as the Shenkeng light rail.[1] Concurrently, these services are connected to Taipei Metro but operate independently.

Lines

Circular Line

New Taipei Metro currently operates the Circular Line, which is the first automated metro entirely within New Taipei City,[2] with the only other driverless line being the Wenhu (formerly Muzha) line. The western section of the line officially opened on 31 January 2020. The line is currently 15.4 km (9.6 mi) long, with 14 stations.[3]

Danhai light rail

The Danhai light rail is a light rail transit (LRT) network located in Tamsui District, New Taipei, Taiwan. It opened on 24 December 2018. The network connects to the Taipei Metro at Hongshulin.[4]

Ankeng light rail

Ankeng LRT serves the Xindian District (Ankeng) of New Taipei City by connecting the Circular line's Shisizhang metro station with Shuangcheng light rail station. Construction started around April 2016 and is well away on the road level part between station K1 and K5, with the first tracks having been laid in November 2018. As of October 2021 the project was 83.69% complete. From station K6 to K9 the tracks are elevated, as well as K2. As of June 2018, the entire section from station K1 to K6 is clearly visible on Google maps running down the middle of Anyi Rd and then turning right onto Anjie Rd, passing through a cemetery and going across Ankang Road. As of September 2018, work has started on the bridge across the Xindian River to Shisizhang station. On February 10, 2023, the Ankeng LRT officially started operations and passengers can ride for free during the first month.[5]

Sanying line

The Sanying line is a metro line under construction, serving Sanxia and Yingge districts. The first section is 14.29 km (8.88 mi) long, has twelve stations and runs through Tucheng, Sanxia and Yingge districts, and should be completed by 2025. The line shares the same terminus with Bannan line's terminal station, Dingpu.[6] This line is also planned to be extended to Bade, Taoyuan with 2 stations and 3.88 km (2.41 mi), terminating at Danan station on the Taoyuan Metro Green line.[7]
