Among these, Tianhe Park Station and Chebei Station will provide transfer connections to existing metro lines. Notably, "Zhucun Station" has been officially renamed "Tianhe Zhucun Station".
For Metro Line 14 Phase II (Guangzhou Railway Station 广州火车站–Jiahewanggang 嘉禾望岗), the eight stations are named Guangzhou Railway Station (广州火车站), Lejia Road Station (乐嘉路站), Yunxiao Road Station (云霄路站), Xinshixu Station (新市墟站), Mawu Station (马务站), Hebian Station (鹤边站), Helong Station (鹤龙站), and Pengbian Station (彭边站). Key transfer hubs include Guangzhou Railway Station (广州火车站) and Xinshixu Station (新市墟站), both of which connect to existing metro lines.
This development marks a significant expansion of Guangzhou's metro network, enhancing connectivity and convenience for residents and visitors ahead of the National Day holiday and the upcoming National Games.
