Line 22 of the Guangzhou Metro (Chinese: 广州地铁22号线; pinyin: Guǎngzhōu Dìtiě Èrshí'èr Hào Xiàn) is a partially open rapid transit express line in Guangzhou with trains operating up to 160 km/h (99 mph).[4][5] It runs between Panyu Square and Chentougang, passing Guangzhou South Railway Station in Panyu District, and will eventually run in a north-south direction passing Xilang and Fangcun in Liwan District. Currently, there are train attendants on board each train. In the future, trains will operate fully driverless GoA4 mode when sufficient reliability from the signaling system has been confirmed.[6]
