Station structure

edit

Line 3

edit

There are 2 side platforms for Line 3 trains. Only 1 platform is in use as the station is the terminal station for North-bound trains. These trains switch beam (monorail tracks) from right to left before entering the station and stopping at the platform for South-bound trains, where they would terminate. Trains then let south-bound passengers board and would head for that direction (towards Yudong).
