Controversy

On December 28, 2011 the northern terminus of the line was shifted from Qihua Road station to an independent station called Jinqiu station beside Line 7 between Qihua and Shanghai University station but with no direct transfers to Line 7. This has stirred controversy among residents over Line 15's already lack of convenient connections with other major subway lines such as Line 2 and Line 10. Planners reconsidered and extended Line 15 north of Jinqiu station to connect with Line 7 at Gucun Park station.
