Yuancun Station (simplified Chinese: 员村站; traditional Chinese: 員村站; Cantonese Yale: Yùhnchyūn Jaahm) is an interchange station between Line 5 and Line 21 of Guangzhou Metro, and also the terminus of Line 21.[1] It is located under the junction of Huacheng Avenue East (Chinese: 花城大道东) and Yuancun 2nd Cross Road (Chinese: 员村二横路) in Tianhe District. It lies to the east of Zhujiang New Town and to the north of Pazhou,[2][3][4] and was opened on 28 December 2009.[5]
Prior to the opening of Line 11, the dismantling work of the section from this station to Tianhe Park of Line 21 began October 2, 2024, and the terminus of Line 21 was adjusted north to Tianhe Park. The 6B train type's shielding doors and glass panel false walls of the outer platform will be removed, and then the appropriate shielding doors of the 8A train type will be installed. At the same time, it was necessary to dismantle the outer platform and the third track between the station and the Tianhe Park station area and replace the signal system to Line 11 standards.[6]
