Shiraz
Light metro under construction

Shiraz has just a little over 1 million inhabitants. The metro began construction in 2001 and is still under construction as of November 2007. While most call it a light rail line, most of the line will be underground.  Line one will consist of 21 stations and 22.4 km of track. Twenty of the 21 stations will be underground. Line 2 will have eight underground stations and 2 stations above ground, while Line 3 will be 16 km with 4 km running underground. All three lines are currently under construction.
