Shaxi Station (Chinese: 沙溪站; pinyin: Shāxī Zhàn; Jyutping: saa1kai1 zaam6) is a station on Line 18 of the Guangzhou Metro, located underground northwest of the intersection of Panyu Bridge and Shaxi Avenue on Shajiao Island in Guangzhou's Panyu District.[1][2][3] It opened on 28 September 2021.[4]

History

In 2014, when the Nansha Express Line was proposed, a station was planned at Shaxi.[5] At the beginning of 2016, in order to meet the requirement that Line 18 can its entire length in 30 minutes, the metro company cancelled the plan for Shaxi Station, which caused dissatisfaction among residents in Shaxi and other areas, and residents sent a letter to the Guangzhou Municipal Development and Reform Commission. Eventually, planning for the station resumed the following year.[6][7]

Station information

In order to meet the requirements of the rail crossing depth at both ends of the station, the station has a total of 3 floors.[3]
