Line 5's color is purple. This line began construction on 14 September 2015,[1] was opened on 27 December 2019, from Huagui Road to Huilong.

Originally, the line was planned to use 6-car Type A rolling stock. However, anticipating high demand as the line will provide relief for the older Line 1 and connect several important business and residential areas, the line was redesigned to allow for expansion to use 8-car Type A rolling stock.[2] This will allow for an ultimate configuration of the line to reach capacities of 64,300 people per hour per direction.[3][4]
