Location

Xunfenggang Station (simplified Chinese: 浔峰岗站; traditional Chinese: 潯峰崗站) is an interchange station between Line 6 and Line 12 of the Guangzhou Metro, and serves as the western terminus for both lines.^[1] The Line 6 station started operations on 28 December 2013.^[2] It is located at the south of the area of Xunfenggang (浔峰岗), A1 Road, Jinshazhou, Baiyun District.^[3] The terminus approaches near Lishui, Nanhai District, Foshan, which is just over the hill next to the station.^[4] Line 12 opened at this station on 29 June 2025, thus becoming an interchange station.

The station is divided into two sections, Line 6 and Line 12, of which the two lines are connected by a passenger distribution concourse on the ground level. It is surrounded by East Xunfengshan Road, Jinshazhou Road, Xunfenggang Bus Terminus and other nearby buildings.

Both station sections include restrooms, of which the Line 6 restroom is located in the non-paid area of the surface level concourse, and restrooms and baby change are located at the western end of the two side platforms on Line 12.

The Line 6 station is a three-storey elevated station. The ground floor is the concourse, the second floor is a pedestrian overpass, and the third floor are the platforms for Line 6.

The Line 12 station is a three-storey underground station. The ground floor is the passenger distribution concourse (with Exits D1 and D2) and Exits E, F and H, the first floor is the concourse and other passageways, and the second floor are the platforms for Line 12.

The concourse is divided into 3 parts, Line 6, Line 12 and the passenger distribution concourse. The Line 6 and passenger distribution concourses are located on ground level, and the Line 12 concourse is located on the first underground floor. The three are not connected to each other in the non-paid area, and passengers from the Line 6 concourse will need to pass through the Line 6 platforms first before reaching the passenger distribution concourse and the Line 12 station.

There are elevators, escalators, and stairs in the fare-paid areas of the Line 6 and Line 12 concourses for passengers to reach the platforms. There is a long passage in the southwest corner of the station leading to the passenger distribution concourse to transfer to Line 6. Exits E, F and H are separated by a paid area. The passenger distribution concourse handles the transfer between Line 6 and Line 12 via escalators, stairs and an elevator.

There are automatic ticket machines and an intelligent customer service center at all three concourses. There is an automated external defibrillator near Exit B on the Line 6 concourse.^[5]

The Line 6 station has an island and side platform, located above the east side of Jinshazhou Road. Line 12 has two side platforms and is located under East Xunfengshan Road. The two platforms form an "L" shape that rotates 45 degrees clockwise.

Line 6 only uses the side platform 2 and platform 1 on the island platform. Platform 3 on the other side of the island platform is a standby platform for storing standby trains and diverting traffic during morning and evening rush hours.

On the southeast side of the Line 6 platforms is a single maneuvering line, which can facilitate switchback before heading into platform 1. There are also several maneuvering lines to the northwest of the platforms arranged in a "figure eight" shape for train turnback. The main line continues to Xunfenggang Stabling Yard as an entry and exit line. Line 12 has a single maneuvering line on the northeast side of the platform for train switchback before the station, and a set of crossing lines on the southwest side for train turnback after the station.

The station has 8 exits for entering and exiting, distributed between the Line 6 concourse, passenger distribution concourse and Line 12 concourse. It is worth mentioning that Exit C on the north side of Line 6 platform 2 is exit only and directly connects to the pedestrian overpass across Jinshazhou Road. The exit was temporarily closed on 8 November 2024 to facilitate the access works of the transfer passage and was reopened after the opening of Line 12.

The station appeared as Line 6's western terminus in the 2003 metro plan, serving the northern part of Jinshazhou.^[6] Subsequently, the station was confirmed to be one of the first stations of Line 6 for construction.

The station was originally designed with only one set of side platforms (i.e. platforms 1 and 2, similar to Hengsha and Shabei down the line). However, in the later design of Line 6, a side-line was added to the west side of platform 1, and platform 1 was changed to an island platform (adding the existing platform 3). At the same time, the maneuvering arrangements before and after the station were rearranged to increase the station's turnback capacity and the efficiency of train intervals, thereby increasing the extreme frequency density of Line 6 as much as possible.

On 15 January 2013, the Line 6 station completed the "three rights" transfer. On 28 December the same year, the station was opened with the official opening of Line 6's initial phase.^[7]

Line 6 trains have only four carriages, and the operating capacity cannot meet the future demand for passenger flow between Jinshazhou and the city center. In the latest version of the Jinshazhou area plan approved by the Municipal Planning Commission in May 2014, Line 12 which was originally planned to be extended to Lishui was diverted to this station, and intersected with Line 6 to set up an interchange in order to ease the passenger flow in the Jinshazhou area.^[8][9]

On 28 February 2025, the Line 12 station completed the "three rights" transfer.^[10] On 29 June the same year, the station was opened.^[11]

During COVID-19 pandemic control rules in 2022, the station was suspended from 21 to 27 November 2022.^[12][13]
