On September 6, a rail line linking Guangzhou Baiyun Station and Beijing-Guangzhou High-speed Railway was successfully connected as the last box girder was cast in place, laying a solid foundation for the track construction in mid-September.
With a total length of 23.1 kilometers, it is expected to open to traffic at the same time as Guangzhou Baiyun Station by the end of 2023.
Covering a total area of about 453,000 square meters, Baiyun Station was capped in late June. With six subway lines underground and bus stations nearby, passengers can enter the Station within two minutes.
Upon completion, Baiyun Station will become the country’s largest comprehensive transit-oriented development (TOD) hub. It will also accommodate slow-speed trains of Guangzhou Station and Guangzhou East Railway Station, allowing renovations of these two stations in the future.
