Line 5
Simplified Chinese广州地铁5号线
Traditional Chinese廣州地鐵5號線

Line 5 of the Guangzhou Metro runs from Liwan District to Huangpu District. It starts at Jiaokou running 31.9 km (19.8 mi) in a wide "∩" shape and ends at Wenchong. Like line 4 and 6 it's equipped with linear induction motor technology. Line 5's color is red. Huangpu Line began operation on 28 December 2009, from Jiaokou to Wenchong. As of May 2017, Line 5 carries an average of 1.05 million passengers per day and is extremely congested throughout the day, operating at over 100% capacity during rush hours.[4][5] The opening of Phase I of Line 13 further increased traffic demand on the west end of Line 5 and pushing congestion to over 130% capacity.[6] Prompting the Guangzhou Metro to limit passenger traffic at a number of subway stations on Line 5.[6] In the future Line 13 Phase II will provide relief for Line 5.
