History

edit

During the planning and construction phase of the station, it was named Liantang Station, which was named after the nearby village of Liantang.[1] Due to the doubling up of the name of this station and the station of the same name on Guangzhou Metro Line 9, this station was officially renamed as Zhihui Xincheng Station in early December 2021, becoming the second station in the Guangfo Line network to be renamed due to the double up names after Baiyun Dongping. The name of the new station is taken from the nearby Smart New Town Park.[5]

Station layout

edit

The station has 2 island platforms under Jihua 2nd Road, the inner tracks for Line 2, the outer tracks reserved for a future cross-platform interchange with Line 4.[6][7]
