Good news comes that the Guangfo West Ring will start construction by the end of September. As a milestone in the overall integration of Guangzhou and Foshan, Guang-fo West Ring connects the central area of Guangzhou and Foshan, and further improve the intercity network of Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

As an important part of Guangfo Ring Line, Guangfo West Ring starts from Foshan West Railway Station and ends at Guangzhou North Railway Station. With a total length of 47.011 kilometers, Guangfo West Ring has 7 stations including Shishan East Station, Dalan Station, Guanjiao Station, Hegui Station, Tanbu Station, Huadu Gang Station and Shenshan North Station. Among them, Shishan East Station is an underground station, and the rest are elevated stations.

Chen Weidong, director of Foshan Rail and Transportation Bureau says that Guangfo West Ring is a critical part for tapping the potential of Guangzhou and Foshan.

From the perspective of geographical position, Guangfo West Ring will tighten the connection between Foshan north area and Guangzhou core area, bring Guangzhou South Railway Station, Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, Foshan West Railway Station and Guangzhou North in a closer contact, and connect subway lines in Guangzhou and Foshan, which will further deepen the integration of Guangzhou and Foshan.
