Wanpingcheng station[1] (Chinese: 宛平城站; pinyin: Wǎnpíngchéng zhàn; lit. 'Wanping Fortress station') is a station on Line 16 of the Beijing Subway. It opened on 30 December 2023, and is the southern terminus of the line.[2]
History
[edit]Line 14 was supposed to come to Wanpingcheng area, but in 2008, the line was rerouted, so the residents of Wanpingcheng area signed a petition for Line 14 to come to Wanpingcheng.[3] Due to engineering constraints, Line 14 was not able to have a station in Wanpingcheng.[4] The closest station is Dawayao station.[5]
In 2010, it was planned that the southern terminus for Line 16 would be Lugouqiao Xiaoyueyuan,[6] but the plan was later changed and the line would terminate at Yushuzhuang station.[7] Because of this, residents of Xiaoyueyuan petitioned for the line to terminate at Xiaoyueyuan, but it is unknown whether the plan was reinstated.[5] In May 2011, the plan was changed, and the line was extended to Wanpingcheng.[8]
On April 25, 2013, the design plan for Wanpingcheng station was published,[9] and construction started in December 2013.[10]
Station layout
[edit]The station has an underground island platform. There are 3 exits, lettered C1, C2 and D. Currently only exits C1 and D are operational. Exits C1 and D lead to the north side of Lugouqiao South Road, and C2 to the south side of Beijing-Hong Kong-Macau Expressway. Exit C1 is accessible.
