After two years spent building the network under the supervision of Shanghai Keolis, which was awarded the contract in 2022, the new tramway in Dujiangyan, Sichuan, has started running on May 15. It provides a convenient transport solution for the city's 700,000 inhabitants and for the millions of tourists visiting the famous tourist areas served by the tramway. The Dujiangyan ancient irrigation system, designed in the 3rd century B.C. and listed as an UNESCO World Heritage site, and the panoramic Qingcheng Mountains can now all be accessed via the 17.3 km Dujiangyan M-TR Project tourist network.

Chuanfa Shenkai, a joint venture of Shanghai Keolis, has started operating and maintaining the network, which features a 13.8 km main line connecting Bajiao Temple station to Mount Qingcheng station, with four elevated sections, and a 3.5 km branch line connecting South Cultural Tourism City station to Zijincheng station. The tramway is also connected to the high-speed rail network via three stations: Guanxian Gucheng, Dujiangyan and Mount Qingcheng.

A few weeks before launching operations in the beginning of March, trial operations were carried out over 4 days, during which almost 300 departures were performed and over 10,000 passengers transported, with a 100% service and punctuality rate.
