The MTR Corporation (Shenzhen) Limited marks a major milestone on 1 July 2010, when the Corporation officially takes over and operates phase 1 of Shenzhen Metro Longhua Line (Line 4)(from Futian Checkpoint to Children’s Palace Station). It’s a moment to be remembered, which indicates that we can bring over Hong Kong MTR’s 30 years’ railway operation experience to Shenzhen, and gradually combine it into daily operation, in which way the Corporation service concept “caring for life’s journeys” can also be implanted into the lives of the local community.
Enhance operation services and improve city competitiveness.
Shenzhen is a city of fusion and openness with diversified living styles, and Shenzhen citizens are particularly known for their inclusiveness and flexibility. In the circumstance, we will keep close cooperation with the government and incorporate the “inclusiveness and fusion” spirit into our corporation culture, trying to build Shenzhen Metro Longhua Line as a perfect symbol of Shenzhen characteristic and Hong Kong services combination, so as to provide caring, fast and excellent services, and create more safe, reliable and comfortable travelling and living experience to all passengers.
After completion of Shenzhen metro network phase 2, we continue looking forward to the cooperation with other metro operators, to further enhance the operation services and bring more convenience to travelling. And by developing community along the line, we aim to bring more economic benefits to the whole city and contribute to Shezhen’s sustainable development, and to create more advantageous conditions for Shenzhen metro network phase 3 construction.
Strengthen community communication and promote green travelling.
As the Low-Carbon lifestyle concept has been widely accepted nowadays, the metro transportation system not only provides an efficient way to alleviate traffic congestions in cities, but also plays a significant role in improving city air quality and building a livable environment. We aim to promote the Low-Carbon and green travelling lifestyle through contributing to the expansion of metro network.
In this respect, the Corporation has organized series of community activities, including “Metro lives in my heart” drawing contest, ”metro safety in campus”, etc., to enhance communication and interaction with the community along the line. Through those activities, the residents better understood the role that metro system plays in improving environment quality, thus spontaneously choose it as a green travelling style.
Promote metro life and foster metro culture.
Metro system in its nature is a mass transit system, will surely become part of our lives and forms its own culture. We will take series of actions and attempts, to better integrate the metro system into our lives and let the metro culture become pioneer of the city culture.
Other than community interaction, other activities, such as space decoration, business promotion, art exhibitions and special functions would also be carried out in the metro space, so as to strengthen interaction with citizens, bring more energy to the metro environment and build up a specific metro culture.
It’s strongly believed, by means of the above efforts, Shenzhen citizens’ recognition to a metro life will gradually increase, and they can enjoy a better life which is brought by metro transportation.
Value staff growth and cultivate industry talents.
We take the personal growth of every employee seriously. In order to build a good development environment, trainings have been arranged to all staff at every stage of their career development. I hope all our staff should keep the enthusiasm and sense of responsibility towards the industry, and show the energy of our young team. We would spare no effort in developing the industry, to train and deliver more talents for the metro industry in the Mainland of China.
In the past six years, we’ve acted up to our ethics and plans, and have made primary achievements. The second phase of Metro Longhua Line (Line 4)(from Lianhua North Station to Qinghu Station) is under construction, and the whole line is expected to open for services in mid 2011. In the future to come, we will continue bringing Hong Kong experience to the Shenzhen operation system, to assist the government, the community and the citizens to realize its social and economic growth target. And by introducing continuous innovation, building livable environment, enhancing city competitiveness, increasing job opportunities and promoting economic growth, so as to improve Shenzhen citizens’ living standard
