Bund Sightseeing Tunnel
The Bund Sightseeing Tunnel is a tunnel connecting the Shanghai Bund and Pudong in Shanghai, China, which houses a cable-hauled passenger rail line.
The rail line has a total length of 646.7 meters, with a station at each end. As of 2010[update], there were 14 passenger cars. Construction started in 1998 and trial operation began in October 2000. The tunnel is a single-hole double-lane tunnel, passing through the upper part of the Metro Line 2 tunnel near the end of Puxi.
The passenger-carrying system consists of unmanned SK carriages (SK 6000 type) imported from France. The fully automatic vehicles are towed by a cable, and there is a turning platform at the terminus to allow the carriages to turn around. There is an overhaul parking area at Pudong Station.
The project was constructed as a tourist attraction and many tourists use it to cross the Huangpu River, even though it costs more than ten times the price of a metro ticket. Passengers are treated to a sound and light show during the journey, which takes between three and five minutes.
