ExitsHistoryThe station first appeared in 2009 under the "Super Ring Line" scheme of Line 11, which was then known as Hedong Daqiao (Hedong Bridge) Station.[5] The plan was subsequently adopted, and construction of the station began under the name of Hedongdong (now Hedong East) Station. Construction of this station officially started on September 28, 2016, and it is the first construction site of the loop line.[6] On October 24, 2020, the main structure of the station was topped out.[7] On July 3, 2024, the station completed the "three powers" transfer.[8] On December 28, the station was put into use with the opening of Line 11.[9] Future developmentFoshan Metro Line 11 will use the station in the future as a terminal station and connect to the Guangzhou Metro Network by connecting to Guangzhou Line 11.[10] Foshan Metro Line 11 was included in the second phase of the Foshan Urban Rail Transit Construction Plan (2021–2026) in 2016 and was approved on January 7, 2021, but construction has not yet started.[11] During construction of the Guangzhou Line 11 station, part of the Foshan Line 11 platform structure and a transfer node at the south end of the Guangzhou Line 11 platforms were therefore built as a reservation.
