Line 7 of the Beijing Subway (Chinese: 北京地铁7号线; pinyin: běijīng dìtiě qīhàoxiàn) is a rapid transit rail line in Beijing. It runs parallel and to the south of Line 1 and Batong Line, from the Beijing West Railway Station in Xuanwu District to Jiaohuachang (Coking Plant) in Tongzhou District. Construction began in January 2010.[2] It started test runs in September 2014 with full operation beginning on December 28, 2014.[3]
Route
Line 7 currently has 19 operational stations and is planned to have a total of 23 stations. The stations will have longer platforms that accommodate 8-train cars than existing Beijing subway station platforms which can only accommodate 6-train cars.[4] The line was originally slated to have 17 stations, from the Beijing West Station to Baiziwan.[5] A revised plan approved by the Planning Committee of the Beijing Municipal government called for 22 stations over 23.9 km, ending in Jiaohuachang (Coking Plant) further east.[6] A 23rd station was added at the eastern 4th Ring Road to accommodate nearby residents.[7]
