Line 10 is a southwest–northeast line of the Shanghai Metro network that opened for service on April 10, 2010.[2][3] The line runs from Jilong Road to Hongqiao Railway Station, with a branch line from Longxi Road to Hangzhong Road. It has been given the unofficial nickname “Golden Line” as it links many of the city's tourist attractions like Yuyuan and Xintiandi. It connects the Hongqiao International Airport with the downtown core of Shanghai, and also the dense residential districts of Yangpu and Hongkou.[4] It is the only line in the system with numbered station codes. It is the first high-density and high-volume fully automatic subway line in mainland China, operating with GoA4 unattended train operation. The line is colored lilac on system maps.
History
The first phase opened on 10 April 2010 and extended on 30 November 2010. The second phase of the line, a northern extension from Xinjiangwancheng to Jilong Road, which crosses underneath the Huangpu River and provide residents of northern Pudong with easier access to parts of Yangpu District and Hongkou District, opened on 26 December 2020.[5]
^On Sunday to Thursday, there are two trains taking passengers from Hongqiao Railway Station (at 22:45 and 23:00) and airport after normal operation time and only stop at selected stations.
^Virtual transfer with line 2 – passengers who hold the Shanghai Public Transportation Card and transfer within 30 minutes of exiting the station are able to transfer to other lines without exiting the system. In-system cross-platform interchange available between eastbound trains toward Pudong Airport Terminal 1&2 and Jilong Road. However, with the help of spanish solution for platforms, it's the de facto case that westbound passengers of both lines 10 and 2 may transfer in-system by acrossing train doors. Out-of-system transfer with Airport Link Line.
^Out-of-station virtual transfer between line 15 (Hongbaoshi Road) and line 10 (Yili Road). This transfer will be counted as two separate journeys requiring two fares.

Signaling
Line 10 is one of the first lines in China capable of automatic train operation.[11] However, upon opening it was operated with drivers on board. In 2020, the line started transitioning into GoA4 unattended train operation with driver cabs being gradually removed for the entire Line 10 fleet.[12][13]Train guards are positioned at the front end of the train to oversee train operations and to drive the train manually in case of malfunction of the automatic train control system.
Rolling stock
Between December 2020 and January 2021, SATEE supplied its OptONIX and ONIX metro traction systems for 156 metro cars of Shanghai Line 10, with support from Xi'an Alstom Yongji Electric Equipment Co. Ltd (XAYEECO). It was also responsible for the train control monitoring system (TCMS) of Shanghai Line 10, and the line's train electrical design. During the same period, CASCO has successfully put into service its Urbalis 888 signalling solution on six of these metro lines in Chengdu and Shanghai.
[14] Between 26 December 2020 and the spring of 2022 the operator cabs have the wall of driver cab removed. Original name: AC13. 100251 and 100961 wrecked on September 27, 2011. They were repaired and returned to service.
There have been a number incidents during the construction of Line 10 but none lead to reported deaths or major injuries. On April 20, 2007, a crane on the Songyuan Road construction site collapsed into a five-story building causing some external damage.[16] On June 25, 2008, during tunnel boring between Liyang Road and Quyang Road, a blowout occurred, letting water and sand enter the tunnel and creating minor sinkholes nearby.[17] On July 21, at the intersection of South Shaanxi Road and Nanchang Road, Line 10 tunnel boring caused a sinkhole with a diameter of 1.8 meters (5 ft 11 in) and a depth of about 6 meters (19 ft 8 in) to appear. On May 18, 2009, a fire broke out on the construction site of Tongji University, covering an area of 100 square meters (1,100 sq ft) and burning down more than ten workers’ dormitories. No deaths were caused by this incident, as the workers were all evacuated in time.[18] On January 6, 2010, a crane at Songyuan Road suddenly lost control during operation, causing a 5 meters (16 ft 5 in)-long boom to crash on the roofs of two construction vehicles.[19]
2011 collision
On September 27, 2011, at 14:37 local time, set 1005 collided with the stalled set 1016 between Yuyuan Garden station and Laoximen station, resulting in 271 injuries, 20 of which is serious. The cause was due to human error. [20][21][22]
