Platform
The station has an island platform located under Linshang Road. In addition, there is a double storage line on the west side of the station, which can be used to turnback for intermediate station terminating trains. At the same time, the track also extends westward into the Beijiao Stabling Yard as an entry and exit line.[5] Some intermediate terminating trains will withdraw from service and return to the Beijiao Stabling Yard after the clearance of passengers on Platform 1. When a typhoon hits and requires the suspension of the open-air section, all trains departing from the north will turnback at this station, serving as the temporary terminus.
Entrances/exits
The station has 3 points of entry/exit, located on the southeast and northwest sides of Linshang North Road. Exit B is equipped with an elevator.[1]
