Future Development

The Phase 3 of the line will add 10.9 km, with 8 stations.[10] The extension start from Dongguantounan station on the Phase 2 of the Fangshan line and end at Lingjing Hutong station (interchange to Line 4). New interchange stations on this project includes Lize Shangwuqu station (interchange to Line 14, 16, Daxing Airport Express), Nanlishi Lu station (interchange to Line 1) and Lingjing Hutong station (interchange to Line 4).[10] According to the information released in July 2022, the extension is included in the "Beijing Rail Transit Phase III Construction Plan".[10]

History

Construction of the Fangshan Line was originally set to begin in 2012[11] but was moved up to April 1, 2009, to use stimulus funding provided by the government to counter the Financial Crisis of 2007-08.[12] The names of Phase 1 stations was announced on March 25, 2010, as a 7-day publicity.[13]

On December 30, 2010, the line began operating from Suzhuang to Dabaotai, but was not connected to any other line of the subway system. One year later, on December 31, 2011, the Dabaotai to Guogongzhuang section opened, linking the Fangshan Line with Line 9 and the rest of the subway network.

On December 30, 2017, the line was extended one stop westward to Yancun Dong (E).

On December 31, 2020, the line was extended north by 4 stations.[5]
