History
Due to setbacks in land acquisition and demolition, construction at the station, located on the now closed site of the Pearl River Swimming Ground Bus Terminal, was postponed until 1 October 2020,[4] and on 16 July 2021, the intersection of Binjiang East Road and Yile Road was also closed for construction.[5] This station is the last station on Line 10 to start construction, not accounting for the Shuqian Road station, which has been cancelled.[6]
The station completed its diaphragm wall enclosure construction on 7 December 2021.[7] The base slab was sealed on 31 May 2022,[8] and the roof slab was sealed on 8 April 2023.[9] In March 2025, the station completed the “three rights” transfer.
During planning and construction, this station was called Binjiang East Road station. In April 2025, the Guangzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau announced the preliminary station names for Line 10, and the station is planned to continue to use the name Binjiang East Road. However, as Binjiang East Road is about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) long, many people suggested naming it after the nearby landmark and bus stop, "Pearl River Swimming Pool.[10] In the end, the authorities did not adopt the suggestion, citing a lack of naming clarity, and the station name Binjiang East Road was retained.[11][12]
The station opened on 29 June 2025.[2]
Future expansion
Line 28 was originally planned to stop at Binjiang East Road,[13] and transfer tunnels and a platform was reserved when Line 10 was built.[14] However, in the latest plan, the Binjiang East Road Station of Line 28 was cancelled. Many people suggested that the station should be retained, or converted into a reserved station in the same way as the Pujun Beilu station on the Foshan Metro's Guangfo line.[15][16]
