Preceding station Shenzhen Metro Following station Terminus Line 13 Talent Park towards Hi-Tech Central

Due to the relative position of the two ends of the station and the limitation of the radius of the curve, the station is not parallel to the road above, but adopts an oblique arrangement similar to Luohu Station with a certain angle. The station is also the most difficult station to construct on the whole Line 13.^[1]

Construction timeline

Phase 1 planning and construction

• On July 26, 2017, Shenzhen Metro Group Co., Ltd. issued the "Environmental Impact Report of Shenzhen Urban Rail Transit Line 13 Project", which includes this station, which is named Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station, because the station is close to the regional landmark Shenzhen Bay Port.^[2][3]
• On January 10, 2018, the first phase of Shenzhen Metro Line 13 officially started, of which the station was built by China Construction Fifth Bureau.^[4]
• On March 28, 2019, Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station completed the traffic relief work on Wanghai Road, providing site conditions for the next step of the main structure enclosure construction of the station.^[1]
• On April 16, 2019, the super-large diameter occlusal pile of the main enclosure structure of Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station began to be tested, which refreshed the record of the largest diameter of the occlusal pile construction of Shenzhen Metro, and also marked that the station officially entered the construction stage of the main enclosure structure.^[5][6]
• On September 27, 2020, the concrete pouring of the first floor slab of the open-cut section of the Shenzhen-Dengliang East section (Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station-Talent Park Station) was successfully completed, which opened the prelude to the comprehensive construction of the main structure of Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station.^[7]
• On November 16, 2020, the left line tunnel of the Shenzhen-Dengliang East section was successfully broken through, which is the third group of double-line sections of the whole line.^[8]
• On December 30, 2020, the main enclosure structure of Shenzhen Bay Checkpoint Station was successfully enclosed, which also marked the official entry of the station into the main structure construction stage.^[9]

Phase 2 south planning and construction

On December 29, 2020, the construction of the second phase of the southern extension of Shenzhen Metro Line 13 officially started, and the line begins from the east end of the station.^[11]

Future development

The line will extend south-west to Dongjiaotou Station to meet up with Line 2 for a third time, and this station will no longer be the terminus of the line after its opening. The southern extension of the second phase of the line is currently under construction and is expected to be opened in 2026.^[12]
