  1. The station is not included in the original plan. It was added in the plan in 2019.[10]

Future development

Southern extension

The southern extension to Jimenqiao station is under construction. The extension is 12.6 km in length[10], including 0.36 km elevated section and 12.24 km underground section.[11] The extension will add 8 underground stations to the line.[10] It is scheduled to open in 2021.[12]

The residents of Qinghe Subdistrict of Haidian District suggested to add Xiaoyingxilu station on the southern extension. The station was confirmed in 2019.[10]

History
The stretch of Changping line, south of Gonghuacheng station.

The planned route of the Changping Line was chosen from three alternatives. The other original options placed the southern terminus of the line at the Beijing North Railway Station near Line 2 at Xizhimen and at Huoying, with transfers not only to Line 8 but to Line 13 as well. One original alternative plan set Phase II at 16.7 km (10.4 mi) with one extra station beyond the Ming Tombs.[13]

On January 5, 2009, the Changping District government signed land clearing contracts with townships along route, Huilongguan, Shahe and Nanshao, marking the official beginning of Phase I construction.[6] Phase I was set to be completed by the end of 2010, and Phase II is scheduled for completion by 2012.[6]

On September 19, 2010, the line commenced trial running with empty cars.[14][15]

On December 30, 2010, Phase I of the line entered into operation.

On December 26, 2015, Phase II of the line entered into operation, extending the line north underground for another 5 stations.
