Liuhua Station (Chinese: 流花站; pinyin: Liúhuā Zhàn; Cantonese Yale: Làufā Jaahm) is a station on Line 11 of the Guangzhou Metro. It started operations on 28 December 2024.[1][2] It is located underground at the intersection of Renmin Road North[3] and Liuhua Road[4] in Yuexiu District.

Structure

In order to reduce the impact of the construction on the ground traffic, the station introduced the tunnel pile method for construction, which is the first station of Guangzhou Metro to adopt this method for construction, and the only fully excavated station of Line 11.[5][6]

History

Construction site (February 2023)

In 2008, when the subway planned the metro ring line, the small ring line was planned to run through Renmin Road North with Liuhua Road station (also known as Liuhua Park station[7]), which was already located in much the same location as it is now. However, the Great Ring Line scheme does not set up this station because the route directly passes beneath Zhanqian Road.[8] In 2010, it was decided to adopt the Super Ring Line scheme, using Renmin Road North at the section from Caihong Bridge Station to Guangzhou railway station, and officially establishing Liuhua Road Station.[9]

Construction of the station began in February 2017.[5] On May 21 of the same year, the bus stop (northbound) on Renmin Road North (Zhannan Road Intersection) was relocated 200 meters north to cooperate with the construction.[10] On 23 April 2023, the main structure of the station was topped out.[11] In June 2023, Guangzhou Metro Group announced the preliminary name of the stations on Line 11, and this station is planned to be named Liuhua station,[12] which was subsequently approved as the official station name in May 2024.[13]

On 28 December 2024, the station was put into use with the opening of Line 11.[14]
