Seoul Light Rapid Transit

The capital city of Seoul in South Korea plans to build up to seven new light metro, or light rapid transit (LRT) lines by 2017. They would be connected to the Seoul Metropolitan Subway giving access to several hundred subway stations. As opposed to traditional subway lines, LRT lines have a lower capacity and speed and generally run above ground.

EverLine is a single-car light metro line that branches off the southern side of the Bundang Line and runs east into Yongin ending at the theme park Everland. Construction finished in 2009 and the line opened in 2013.

By December 2016, Seoul City plans to open a 11.4 km (7.1 mi) light subway line (Ui LRT) from Ui-dong to Sinseol-dong in northeastern Seoul. The line is expected to carry 110,000 passengers a day and will have 13 stations. It will connect to Line 4 at Sungshin Women's University, Line 6 at Bomun and Line 1 & 2 at Sinseol Dong.

Uijeongbu City in Gyeonggi-do has built a 15-station light rail line, the U Line, connecting various parts of Uijeongbu with Seoul Subway Line 1 at Hoeryong Station. Despite the physical link, no free transfers exist between the two systems and as such it is not included on most subway maps in Seoul. It opened July 1, 2012.

Although still in the early stages, there are plans to build up to seven LRT lines on Yeongjong Island as part of the IFEZ development program.
