The railway starts south of Gaotang Bridge station in south Yinzhou District, goes south until it reaches the Ningbo Ring Expressway and turns into an elevated line and enters the Huanzhen North Road of Jiangshan Town. After reaching Jiangshan Station, it turns east into Yanhu Road and passes Yinzhou Industrial Park and Yongjiang Village until it reaches Fangqiao and turns south again along Donghuan Road before it reaches its destination, Jinhai Road Station.[6] The section between Fangqiao to Dacheng stations the elevated structure will run under the elevated south extension of the Ningbo Airport Expressway forming a three level structure similar to the northern section of Shanghai Metro Line 1.[7]

The route is 21.53 km in length[2][3][8], of which 0.916 km is underground[8] with the rest being elevated.
