History

edit

During the planning phase, this station was called Shuanggang Station. Before Wenyuan Station was opened on Line 13, it was renamed to Shuanggang Station, which conflicted with the name of this station. The two stations are in different locations, and it is not possible to build a transfer. On February 27, 2023, the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau announced the initial names of stations on the east extension of Line 5, and this station was renamed to Shuangsha Station.[2]
