Platform and transfer method
[edit]The station has an island platform each for Line 8 and Line 12. The Line 8 platform is located under Shicha Road, the Line 12 platform is located under the west side of Xicha Road. The two form a "T" shape, with Line 8 on the top and Line 12 on the bottom. For transfers, there is a nodal transfer mezzanine level between the second and third underground floors, connecting the middle of the Line 8 platform and the east end of the Line 12 platform respectively for passengers to transfer between the two lines. You can also transfer through the concourse.
Both platforms have restrooms and baby change, of which for Line 8 it is located at the south end of the platform, and for Line 12 it is located at the west end of the platform towards Xunfenggang.[2] In addition, there is a set of dual-storage lines on the north end of the Line 8 platform. This station is used as an intermediate terminus for Line 8, and some trains will turnback using these storage lines.

[edit]The station has 6 exits for entering and exiting, in which Exits A, B and D opened with the station's initial opening, Exit E was opened in early 2024, and Exits G and H opened with the west section of Line 12.

History
[edit]
In the 1997 "Guangzhou City Urban Expressways Traffic Line Network Planning Study (Final Report)", the then Line 4 and Line 6 were set up at the current intersection of Xicha Road and Dekang Road with a two-line transfer station. Eventually, most of the section of Line 4 became part of the current Line 8, and Line 6 was converted into the current Line 12, and the station was also named Julong station. On 2 December 2016, the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau announced the initial names of the northern extension of Line 8, and the station was renamed Dekang station.[3] In 2018, the name of Julong station was restored and confirmed. As for the restoration of the original project name as the official station name, some comments believe that the station is next to Julong Village, and "Julong" has been used by locals for many years, whilst "Dekang" comes from the name of one of the roads at the intersection where the station is located. However, the intersection also connects Xicha Road and Shicha Road, and it seems that the name "Dekang" alone seems to be blindly used.[4]
The roof slab of the Line 8 station was sealed on 28 October 2018.[5] The power transmission was successfully carried out in March 2020,[6] and the "three rights" transfer was completed on 30 September the same year.[7] On 26 November 2020, the station opened with the opening of the northern extension of Line 8.[8]
The Line 12 station completed the "three rights" transfer on 24 April 2025 and opened on 29 June the same year.[1]
Operational incident
[edit]During COVID-19 pandemic control rules in 2022, the station was affected by prevention and control measures many times and needed to adjust its services. During the epidemic in April, the station was suspended from 9 to 23 April.[9] During the year-end epidemic, the station was suspended from 21 to 27 November.[10][11]
