■ Some railway enthusiasts took photos and punched out cards, and also focused on the intercity icons below the route map.
Xinkuai News reporter Li Jiawen reported that the opening of the Guangzhou Foshan South Ring Road and the Foshan Dongguan Intercity Railway has entered the countdown, and the Guangzhou Metro network map is being "updated" one after another. On May 22, the reporter of the New Express News saw the new route map of Guangzhou Metro that had been replaced at the Guangzhou South Railway Station. The new map has been added to the new intercity line. The subway and intercity are integrated into "one network" and connected to "a string of cities". The one hour commuter circle in the Dawan District is accelerating to form. This is the first time that Guangzhou Metro has updated the line network diagram this year, and it will continue to be updated next, because at least the east extension section of Line 3 and Line 11 will be opened this year.
Recently, careful passengers found that the network map of Guangzhou Metro line has been updated, so they were excited to send a new map on the network platform with an article: awesome! Should we call Guangdong Metro in the future.
On May 22, the reporter of New Express saw the new version of the line network diagram at Guangzhou South Railway Station. The reporter also happened to meet the railway fans who took photos and punched cards. The railway fans also focused on photographing the intercity icon below the route map.
According to the observation, the biggest difference of the new version of the route map is that Guangzhou Metro has included the Guangzhou Zhaoming and Guangzhou Hui intercity lines operated by Guangdong Intercity Corporation. These two intercity lines are formed by the "four lines" of the upcoming Guangfo South Ring Road, Foguan Intercity and the existing Fozhao, Guanhui Intercity. Centering on Panyu Station at Guangzhou South Railway Station, they reach Zhaoqing in the west and Huizhou in the east, forming an east-west artery across the five cities in the Dawan District. At the same time, the back section of Foshan Metro Line 3 (Zhen'an - Xianxi Campus of the Academy of Buddhist Sciences) has also entered the line network diagram.
At the Guangdong Intercity Station, the intercity line network map is also updated synchronously. The simple intercity network diagram is much simpler, mainly showing four intercity lines (Guangqing, Guangzhou East Ring, Guangzhao, Guanghui), as well as the connecting key subway lines. The subway part is greatly simplified, only showing Guangzhou Metro Line 2, Line 3 and Line 9.
