Station layout

The station has an underground island platform. Platform 1 is for trains towards Jiaoxin, whilst platform 2 is for trains towards Wanshengwei.

In order not to affect the ground traffic of Middle Kangwang Road as much as possible during the construction of this station, and to avoid the Kangwang Road tunnel south of the station, the platform was constructed using a combination of cut and cover excavation, and the width of the central open cut part was 26 meters wide, the most spacious platform in Guangzhou Metro. In addition, the two main tracks of Line 8 need to match the direction of Kangwang Road, so both platforms 1 and 2 are curved.[2]
