With installations already in full operation on Shanghai Metro's Line 6 and Line 9, security specialist Beijing STY turned again to access control specialist TDSi's products, in partnership with its distribution partner in China, ZDX, to provide a fully integrated security solution for installation on Line 7.
Shanghai Metro is one of the newest and fastest growing rapid transit systems in the world, with 329 stations and over 538km of track running both above and underground making it one of the longest in the world. On average, well over six million passengers use the system everyday – with potential future expansion set to see that number increase.
Line 7 connects the Baoshan District with the city center and Pudong District. Significantly, it also provided a vital link to the site of the World Expo, which was hosted by Shanghai in 2010.
Beijing STY, in conjunction with TDSi and ZDX, had already developed and supplied fully integrated access control solutions for Lines 6 and 9. Each Line is served by over 40 stations as well as its own Operational Control Centre (OCC), with around 2,000 doors secured and controlled by TDSi's systems on each line.
