History

Shuixi Station was originally planned as the northern terminus of Line 4.^[3] At the end of 2010, the northern extension of the original Line 4 (Huangcun-Shuixi) was singled out and extended to both ends to become Line 21. In order to cooperate with the express positioning of Line 21, this station was cancelled for a time; Later, the setting was resumed during the EIA stage, and construction was finally implemented.^[4]

In 2016, the second phase of Plan 7 was extended to Shuixi Station as the terminal station, and then further extended to Shuixibei Station (now Yanshan). Line 21 was not initially scheduled have a transfer with Line 7, but at the end of 2016, the station design was changed to include a reserved transfer point with Line 7.^[5]

On 30 April 2019, the transfer to the '3 Powers' was completed on Line 21 of this station;^[6] On 20 December of the same year, the station was opened with the opening of the remaining section of Line 21.^[1] In order to coincide with the upcoming opening of the second phase of Line 7, the express train of Line 21 will stops at this station from 29 August 2023.^[7]

In October 2023, the transfer to the '3 Powers' was completed at the Line 7 station.^[8] On 28 December 2023, the station part of Line 7 was officially opened with the opening of the second phase of Line 7, and the station became a transfer station.^[9]
