Taizhou Rail Transit[2] (simplified Chinese: 台州轨道交通; traditional Chinese: 台州軌道交通; pinyin: Tāizhōu Guǐdào Jiāotōng) is an urban rail transit system in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province, China. The system is operated by Taizhou Rail Transit Construction and Development Co., Ltd. In the near term (Phase I), two lines, S1 and S2, are planned; in the long term, lines S3 and S4 are planned.

The first phase of the plan was approved by the National Development and Reform Commission of the People's Republic of China in December 2014,[3] and approved by the Zhejiang Provincial Development and Reform Commission in September 2016.[4] Construction of Line S1 started in November 2016[5][6] until its opening in December 2022.
Nomenclature
editIn the PRC both the terms simplified Chinese: 市郊铁路; traditional Chinese: 市郊鐵路; pinyin: shìjiāo tiělù (Urban-Suburban railway) and simplified Chinese: 市域铁路; traditional Chinese: 市域鐵路; pinyin: shìyù tiělù (Prefectural area railway) refer to newly-opened commuter/regional railway services. These terms are usually interchangeable and are designated with the Latin letter S.
In Southern Zhejiang province, however, shìjiāo tiělù refers to genuine commuter/regional lines like that of Transilien, while shìyù tiělù, dubbed with S, refers to partially underground urban systems like that of the RER. Taizhou, in particular, has both systems in its rail transit in operation; while Wenzhou has both a RER-like system in operation and a planned rapid transit. The RER-like system has everything similar to a rapid transit in terms of operation, and has no direct connections with the national railway system, yet still has a loading gauge and signaling system inherited from the interprovincial railway and runs on the left track,[7] and comes with a longer distance between stations (approximately 3 km).
