Shendu Highway (Chinese: 沈杜公路; pinyin: Shěndù Gōnglù), formerly Aerospace Museum (simplified Chinese: 航天博物馆; traditional Chinese: 航天博物館; pinyin: Hángtiān Bówùguǎn),[1] is an interchange station between Line 8 and Pujiang line of the Shanghai Metro in the town of Pujiang, Minhang District, Shanghai, at Shendu Highway and Puxing Highway. This station serves as the southern terminus of Line 8 and the northern terminus of the Pujiang line, and opened on July 5, 2009, with the second phase of Line 8. The station became an interchange station between Line 8 and the Pujiang line on March 31, 2018, with the opening of the Pujiang line further south to Huizhen Road.[2]

Naming

The station was named Aerospace Museum until 31 August 2013, when it was changed to Shendu Highway.[1] It was expected to undergo another name change to Pujiang Country Park[3] with the opening of the Pujiang line.[4] However, this name change is no longer being considered.[5]
