Beijing Subway Line 11

 

Xinshougang ↔ Jin'anqiao


(Identification Color: grapefruit color      )

The first phase of Beijing subway line 11, aka the western section, has been opened since late 2021. The line is located in Shijingshan District of in west Beijing and runs roughly north-south, stretching from Moshikou Station to Xinshougang Station. At present, the Moshikou Station has not been opened, and the subway trains only run from Jin'anqiao to Xinshougang.

The subway line 11 is known as the Winter Olympic Branch Line because it once served the traffic in the Shougang Park, which was one of the competition venues of the 2022 Winter Olympics. The subway train has a blue and white exterior. Its interior is decorated with Winter Olympics elements and the overhead lights are designed in the shape of snowflakes.

At present, the east section of subway line 11 has been included in the planning and research of the city's rail transit network. In the future, line 11 will be a major artery linking the west and the east of Beijing.

Extension Plan of Beijing Subway Line 11

The line 11 currently in operation is very short, which is certainly not enough to relieve the city's traffic pressure. In the long-term planning, line 11 is a major west-east traffic artery of Beijing, running east from Shijingshan District to Fengtai and Chaoyang Districts.
 
According to the full map of line 11 released earlier by Beijing Construction Department, the route of the whole line is roughly as follows: (from West to East)
 
► Moshikou → Jin'anqiao → Beixinan → Xinshougang → Xingcai → Guoluchang Nanlu → Yamenkouxi → Yamenkoudong → Lugu Dajie → Wujiacun → Xiaowayao → Qingta → Lianhuaqiao → Beijingxi Zhan (Beijing West Railway Station) → Maliandao → Lize Shangwuqu → Caihuying Qiaodong → Beijingnan Zhan (Beijing South Railway Station) → Yangqiao → Muxiyuan Qiaobei → Liujiayao → Fangzhuang → Panjiayuanxi → Panjiayuan → Beigongda Ximen → Nanlouzizhuang → Huagong → Wangsiyingqiao → Fatou
 

Future Transfer with Other Lines

Jin'anqiao: Transfer with Line 6 & Line S1
Lianhuaqiao: Transfer with Line 10

The above route can reach as far as Fatou in the Chaoyang District in the east, but it is only under planning at present. The east extension section has not started to be constructed yet. It is also said that line 11 might only reach Yangqiao in the Fengtai District. There is still no final conclusion, and it needs to wait for the official announcement from Beijing’s rail transit network construction department.
