in the early days of liberation, there were 44 bus lines in Shanghai, with 934 vehicles in operation and 237 million passengers per year. By the early 199s, Shanghai public transport had formed an annual passenger volume of nearly 5 billion passengers, with an annual mileage of 1,38,6 kilometers, with 48 lines and the scale of 6,562 buses.
