Future Shanghai Metro and Maglev Map To Herbert: I do not agree. These "short term government" have managed to develop huge train, metro, motorway systems in western countries a very long time before "long term view" Chinese government build the first metro or highway. They also put hundred of billions of Euros in public research and space exploration. And it is still not finish, for example France continue to develop his high speed train network of TGV, and will open a new line the 10 June, and cost a lot of billions of euros.(http://www.tgvesteuropeen.com/rubrique.php3?id_rubrique=77) |

Future Shanghai Metro and Maglev Map To Herbert: I do not agree! How have such countries as France fund the huge development high speed train (for each line cost billions of euros? and are really long term). France open the 10 June a new high speed train line. By the way, Western countries build huge metro system, trains, motorway, infrastructure long time before china build his first motorway or metro... When I say long time before I mean 50 to more than 100 years. They also fund hundred of billions in public research and space exploration. Not that bad for "short term" governments ;-) +++ |

Future Shanghai Metro and Maglev Map I am looking since a long time for this map. Thank you. Shanghai is so big, than even when you are on a metro line, you might have to walk 10 to 15 minute to have a metro station (for example when you are in Plaza 66). So, it will still be less convenient than Paris metro. (http://www.ratp.info/picts/plans/gif/reseaux/metro.gif) I am still waiting forward to use all these metro. PS: I still think that maglev is a waste of money (way to expensive for the use, and use way too much electricity produce by coal which pollute a lot) |
