Jiaokou Station (Chinese: 滘口站; Cantonese Yale: Gaauháu Jaahm) is an elevated terminus on Line 5 of the Guangzhou Metro.[1] It is located on Fangcun Avenue West (芳村大道西) near its namesake, the Jiaokou Coach Terminal (滘口客运站) in Fangcun, Liwan District, Guangzhou.[2][3][4] It opened on 28 December 2009.[5]
History
A station in this area was first proposed in the Guangzhou Fast Rail Transit Network Design Report in 1997. A line would start in Sanyanqiao, pass through Jiaokou, then continue along what became the route of modern day Line 6. Another line roughly resembling modern Line 5 was also proposed in this report, but its eastern terminus was further north in Jinshazhou. By 2003, the eastern ends of these two lines had been swapped and the Sanyanqiao - Jiaokou station dropped, forming the modern day Line 5.[6] The exact site of the station was announced in early 2004.[7]
The main structure of the station was completed in August 2009.[8] The station opened with the rest of Line 5 on 28 December 2009.[5]
Future Lines
In 2007, plans emerged for a Foshan Metro line (also numbered Line 5) to run from Shunde district into Jiaokou, providing an interchange with Guangzhou Metro Line 5.[9] By 2017, this had changed to a Line 6 running from the town of Dali.[10]
Station layout
Like Tanwei station, Jiaokou is on a viaduct. The track layout has trains reversing direction on the platform, instead of the slightly more common layout of having trains arrive on one platform, proceed into a siding before reversing direction and emerging on the other platform.[8]
