Line 14 of the Guangzhou Metro is a rapid transit line serving the city of Guangzhou. Like Line 21, Line 14 is a rapid suburban metro line envisioned to promote development in Guangzhou's northeast regions. Unlike other Guangzhou Metro lines, Line 14 contains passing loops at some stations to allow for express service between the city center and the outlying district of Conghua.[1] Trains on Line 14 reach a maximum service speed of 120 km/h (75 mph),[2] allowing for passengers to travel from outer Guangzhou to the city center in one hour. Line 14 actually consists of two independent services - a mainline which opened on December 28, 2018, connecting Jiahewanggang in Baiyun to Dongfeng in Conghua and a shuttle branch referred to as the Knowledge City Line, which runs from Xinhe in Baiyun to Zhenlong in Huangpu.[3] Passengers can use a cross-platform interchange to transfer between the Line 14 mainline and the Knowledge City Line at Xinhe station. An extension south to Guangzhou railway station is currently under construction, with long-term plans to separate the Knowledge City branch into its own line as Line 27.
