History

Old planning

In 2006, Line 11 was originally designed as an L-shaped line from Wanliu to Dahongmen, which together with the L-shaped Line 10, form a subway ring route.^[16] After Line 10 Phase II took over the entire ring route, Line 11 was displaced.

In January 2010, the government of Shijingshan District disclosed plans for a Line 11 in western Beijing that would traverse the Shougang (Beijing Capital Steel) complex and intersect with Lines 4 and 16.^[17][18]

Phase 1

Construction started on November 13, 2019.^[6] The western section (Phase 1) of Line 11 (Moshikou station — Xinshougang station), also known as "Winter Olympic Branch Line", is 4.2 km (2.6 mi) in length with 4 stations.^[3][4] It is fully underground.^[19][20]

Jin'anqiao, Beixin'an and Xinshougang (Shougang Park) stations opened on December 31, 2021.^[21] Moshikou station opened on December 30, 2023.^[7]

Phase 2

According to the information released on January 11, 2022, Phase II of Line 11 to Lize Shangwuqu and Yangqiao is included in the "Beijing Rail Transit Phase III Construction Plan".^[22] In 8 July 2022, an EIA document regarding Phase III construction of Beijing rail transport system (2022–2027) confirmed that it will be 23.8 km (14.8 mi) long with 17 stations.^[23]

The section between Lize Shangwuqu and Yangqiao was not approved by the NDRC and removed from the short-term plan in 2023.^[24] On 8 July 2024, a tender announcement modified phase 2 of line 11 to be 17.4 km (10.8 mi) with 14 stations.^[25] It was announced that Yamenkoudong,^[26] Wujiacun,^[27] Xiaowayao,^[28] Wanfenglu,^[29] Lianhuaqiao,^[30] Maliandao,^[31] Lize Shangwuqu^[32] and Tiyuchang Nanjie^[33] stations will start constructions.
