History
Ridership
News reports speculated about the tram system shutting down, as it reports one of the lowest passenger numbers of all trams in China. In June 2024 the daily average passenger number amounted to 300, down from 2,000 when the tram first started operation. In 2022 the tram operations recorded an 80 million yuan loss.[6][7]

The line runs south from Mengzi North railway station.
