Jinshajiang Road Station

Jinshajiang Road (Chinese: 金沙江路; pinyin: Jīnshājiāng Lù) is an interchange station on Lines 3, 4, and 13 of the Shanghai Metro. It is located in Putuo District, Shanghai and is one of the stations where Lines 3 and 4 share tracks.

The station opened on 26 December 2000 as part of the initial section of Line 3 from Shanghai South Railway Station to Jiangwan Town, and Line 4 service began here on the final day of 2005. On 30 December 2012, the Line 13 portion of the Jinshajiang Road station began its test runs, providing service westbound towards Jinyun Road. Although service did not include mobile or Wi-Fi signals, the metro did provide service from this station to five stations in Jiading District, including Line 13's initial northern terminus, Jinyun Road.

The station served as the eastern terminus of Line 13 until the opening of the eastern extension to Changshou Road on 28 December 2014.

During the 2021 Shanghai People’s Congress deputies suggested to change the station name to East China Normal University. The naming the station Jinshajiang Road isn't ideal because none of its exits is on Jinshajiang Road and people might confuse it with the West Jinshajiang Road Station on Line 13.

Location

The station is next to the Global Harbor shopping mall, which opened on 5 July 2013. It is attached directly to the mall underground. The station is also near East China Normal University's Putuo campus.
