Three lines (S1, S2 and S3) have received approval from the NDRC, and two more lines (M1 and M2) are not approved (de facto rejected) by NDRC. Line S1 has been under construction since November 2011 and was opened in January 2019.[1] Line S2 opened in August 2023. Line S3 is under construction and will open in 2027. The first three lines are projected to cost about 50 billion yuan.

Nomenclature
In the PRC in general both the terms 市郊铁路 (Urban-Suburban railway) and 市域铁路 (Perfectural railway) refers to newly-opened commuter/regional railway services in general interchangeably, and are designated with Latin letter S. In Southern Zhejiang province, however, 市郊铁路 refers to genuine commuter/regional lines like that of Transilien, while 市域铁路, dubbed with S, refers to the partially underground urban system like that of the RER. Taizhou, in particular, has both systems in its rail transit in operation; while Wenzhou has both a RER-like system in operation and a planned rapid transit. The RER-like system has everything similar to a rapid transit in terms of operation, and has no direct connections with the national railway system, yet still has a loading gauge and signaling system inherited from the interprovincial railway and runs on the left track,[2] and comes with a longer distance between stations (approximately 3km). Due to the state restrictions on rapid-transit building in smaller cities some city governments use this methods to circumvent such restrictions, branded as a rapid transit toward the citizens while as a commuter rail toward the central government.
