Yeah. Line 3 used different rolling stock than the other three lines, unusual linear induction motor powered equipment, which was reaching the end of its service life. The plan was to shut it down in November 2023 and temporarily replace it with bus service while they built a Line 2 extension to serve the neighborhoods Line 3 used to. Unfortunately, a train derailed in July 2023, which resulted in the system shutting down four months sooner than expected.
The Line 2 extension is going to take a different route to eventually arrive at Line 3βs old terminus. I think thereβs plans to covert the old line 3 viaduct into a Bus Rapid Transit guideway.

I might be wrong but a lot of it's wikipedia page looks like this city was completely reconstructed from the ground up in said period of time that makes it too exceptional for this comparison and not a usual occurence even in China. It became a major hub of China-EU trade upping it's importance and neccesitating a boost in infrastructural efficiency while it's population effectively doubled. A great move all around tho.
A nation's big construction projects tend to happen when labour is at its cheapest.

Not a fair comparison as Chengdu has multiple times the population of Toronto.
I think it's less about the absolute dimensions than about the fact that Toronto's metro barely grew at all.
