Getting around: New signs, Expo Line 13, and big money

The People's Square station signage will soon get a makeover to get up-to-date with Line 8's signs. The new Line 8 platform will open by year's end.
Metro Line 13, which has 4 planned stops servicing the future World Expo site, will be branded as a World Expo line. This is part of a move to add culture to the Shanghai subway system.
The mother of the young man who was trapped and killed between metro train doors and the safety doors back in September is suing the Shanghai Shentong Metro, the Shanghai Metro management, and Westinghouse Platform Safety Doors (Guangzhou) for a total of RMB 1.18 million, about USD 150k.
