STORYLINE:
A trans-provincial metro line went into operation in east China on Saturday, linking Suzhou, a major GDP contributor in east China's Jiangsu Province, with Shanghai, another economic heavyweight in the region.
This is the first time that the core cities in the Yangtze River Delta region have linked their separate urban subway systems.
The line can cut the travel time between city propers of Suzhou and Shanghai to about two hours.
The launch of the intercity subway line also paves the way for further synergetic development of Suzhou and Shanghai. At present, many Fortune 500 enterprises have built their Chinese headquarters in Shanghai while placing their factories in Suzhou.
