Line 5 of the Fuzhou Metro (Chinese: 福州地铁5号线; pinyin: Fúzhōu Dìtiě Wǔ Hào Xiàn) is a metro line in Fuzhou. It starts at Jingxi Houyu and as of February 2023, ends at Ancient Luozhou Town, with a total length of 22.4 km (13.9 mi).[1] The line opened on 29 April 2022.[1] The opening of a further section from Ancient Luozhou Town to Fuzhou South railway station, which will extend the line's length to 27.7 km (17.2 mi), was delayed due to the delay of the reconstruction of the train station for the Fuzhou–Xiamen high-speed railway, which is expected to re-open in the second half of 2023.[2] Line 5's color is ■ purple.
