The Maoming South Railway Station, invested and built by the Guangzhou-Zhanjiang Railway Company of the Guangdong Provincial Railway Construction Investment Group, completed its foundation construction phase on Oct 17. Construction on the main station building is now in full swing, marking a significant milestone in the station's construction.
Located in Poxin town, Dianbai district, Maoming, Maoming South Railway Station is adjacent to the city center and the South China Sea. The station features a side platform design and includes three platforms and seven tracks, including two main tracks. The station building covers a total area of 14,999.95 square meters and adopts an upper-entry, lower-exit streamlined organization method. This design highlights the coastal cultural characteristics of the Maoming region, with the main building's streamlined contour symbolizing Maoming's progressive development.
Since the project's inception, Guangzhou-Zhanjiang Railway Company has been meticulous about the construction plan, ensuring the high-quality and efficient completion of the foundation construction phase. This progress is crucial for the completion of the Guangzhou-Zhanjiang High-Speed Railway construction in 2024. Upon completion, the travel time between Maoming South Railway Station to Guangzhou Railway Station will be reduced to approximately 70 minutes, facilitating the city's integration into the Greater Bay Area's "One-Hour Living Circle" and supporting its high-quality economic development.
