Subway Delays ... Again

From the paper, as usual.  Again, as usual, the motorcycle trumps all over forms of transport.

METRO passengers were left frustrated again yesterday after glitches on lines 3 and 4 left services operating at reduced speeds.

These are the latest in a series of problems on the Shanghai Metro in recent days, creating discontent among users. Public confidence is already low following the two-train collision that left almost 300 passengers injured in September.

Yesterday's incidents were the sixth and seventh on the Metro since last Friday, each causing lengthy delays.

"It seems to me that Metro passengers have been living on a razor's edge," said daily rider Steve Kong.

"Everyone's hyper-sensitive and anxious about traveling on the subway."

Kong added that the Metro operator seemed to be more cautious since last month's crash, as trains now travel much slower whenever there are glitches.
