Guangzhou Metro unveiled its updated network map on September 17, with pilot deployments at Yuzhu Station (魚珠站) and Jiahewanggang Station (嘉禾望崗站) marking the official start of a citywide replacement of station and train network maps.
The new map comes in two versions: the Metro Edition and the Interconnected Edition, each incorporating updates to both metro lines and intercity railway information.
The Metro Edition now includes new metro routes such as Line 13 Phase II (Yuzhu to Tianhe Park 魚珠至天河公園) and Line 14 Phase II (Lejia Road to Jiahewanggang 樂嘉路至嘉禾望崗), along with enhanced transfer signs at stations connecting to the Guangzhou East Ring Intercity Railway (Panyu-Baiyun Airport North 番禺-白云機場北) and the Pazhou Branch Line of the Guangzhou-Dongguan-Shenzhen Intercity Railway.
The Interconnected Edition builds on these additions by integrating three intercity railway lines—Guangzhou East Ring Intercity, the Pazhou Branch Line of the Guangzhou-Dongguan-Shenzhen Intercity Railway, and the Guangzhou-Huizhou Intercity Railway (Xiaojinkou-Huizhou North 小金口-惠州北), with transfer signs added to eight intercity stations near national railways or metro stations.
Travelers can now enjoy seamless connections; for instance, direct transfers without second security checks at Huizhou North Station (惠州北站) to high-speed rail, and in-station transfers to Metro Lines 14, 11, 7, and 3 at stations like Zhuliao (竹料), Pazhou (琶洲), Shenjing (深井), and Dashidong (大石東). Out-of-station transfers to Lines 3, 6, and 5 are available at Baiyun Airport South (白云機場南), Longdong (龍洞), and Keyunlu (科韻路) stations.
The new intercity lines will introduce a spot punch map, guiding residents in planning cultural tours along the routes. Guangzhou Metro is rolling out the map updates across stations in phases, with digital platforms, including the official WeChat account, mini program, and app, also scheduled for synchronized updates ahead of the new lines' launch.
Additionally, the metro's self-operated convenience store chain is set to open its first eight branches at stations like Baiyun Dongping (白云東平), Chebei (車陂), Pazhou (琶洲), Dongshankou (東山口), Shahe (沙河), Datang (大塘), Kecun (客村), and Dashi (大石).
