History

Perspective
Zhongchun Road was originally not part of the original Line 9 design, with only two tracks leading out of Jiuting Depot planned to the west of the current station. In March 2004, the Ministry of Railways (MOR) revised the layout for railway stations built in Shanghai, with a high-speed rail station planned in Qibao. The government of Shanghai subsequently planned to route Lines 2 and 10 to the newly proposed station, and in November Shentong Metro Group decided to insert an additional station to serve the proposed railway station. One of the tracks to Jiuting Depot, which had already started construction, was expanded to become the new station, with revisions completed by March 2005 and construction drawing design starting in May. However, the MOR decided that the high-speed rail station would be moved to Hongqiao (to become the present day Shanghai Hongqiao railway station). Shentong Metro ultimately decided to keep the newly-added Zhongchun Road station, while rerouting Line 2 and Line 10 to the new station in Hongqiao.[1]: 86–87 Zhongchun Road station opened on December 29, 2007, as part of Phase 1 of Line 9.[2]
From June until December 2024, to prepare for the opening of the Airport Link Line section of the station, several exits of the Line 9 segment of the station were closed to facilitate the construction of a walkway between the two lines.[3] The Airport Link Line section started operations on December 27, 2024.[4]

Station Layout
The Line 9 station was constructed as a large hub station in anticipation of the originally proposed high-speed rail station, with a returning track originally planned at neighbouring Qibao station moved here. The station also includes transfer walkways to Line 2 and Line 10, which are not currently in use.[2]: 85
