Background

Planning and preparation for construction began in 2001 and 2008 respectively, but was delayed due to the world economic crisis. The projected was approved by National Development and Reform Commission^[1] and included in the urban rail development project 2012–2020.^[2][3]

All three lines currently under construction (Lines 1, 3, 2) have, in total, 52 stations, 59.6 km length and will cost 42.19 billion yuan to construct.

The first line to open, Line 1, will have 20 stations and will be 23.9 km in length. It will be completed in 2017. The second line to open, Line 3, will have 17 stations and will be 19.5 km in length. It will be completed two years later in 2019.

Lines 1 and 3 will intersect at Shijiazhuang Railway Station. The stations of these two lines were named in January 2013.^[6][7][8] Line 2 will run from north to south.^[9]
