Planned Route
Line 7 will have 23 stations over 23.9 km. The stations will have longer platforms that accommodate 8-train cars than existing Beijing subway station platforms which can only accommodate 6-train cars. The line was originally slated to have 17 stations, from the Beijing West Station to Baiziwan. A revised plan approved by the Planning Committee of the Beijing Municipal government called for 22 stations over 23.9 km, ending in Jiaohuachang (Coking Plant) further east. A 23rd station was added at the eastern 4th Ring Road to accommodate nearby residents.

Famous quotes containing the words planned and/or route:
““If little planned is little sinned
But little need the grave distress.
What’s dying but a second wind?
How but in zig-zag wantonness
Could trumpeter Michael be so brave?””
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“By a route obscure and lonely,
Haunted by ill angels only,
Where an eidolon, named Night,
On a black throne reigns upright,
I have reached these lands but newly
From an ultimate dim Thule—
From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of space—out of time.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
