Diejiao station
station of Foshan Metro

Diejiao station (Chinese: 叠滘站; pinyin: Diéjiào Zhàn; Cantonese Yale: Dihpgaau Jaahm) is a station on Line 3 of Foshan Metro, located in Foshan's Nanhai District. It opened on 23 August 2024.
Station layout
The station has 2 stacked side platforms under Haisan Road. Due to the narrow road of Haisan Road and the large number of residences and shops on both sides of the road, in order to ensure the safe distance between the metro station and the buildings on both sides, and at the same time reduce the large number of demolitions of houses on both sides, the line was laid in a stacked manner, and the station was set up as a three-storey underground stacked station. It is the first station in Foshan to feature a stacked platform configuration.
Entrances/exits
The station has 2 points of entry/exit, lettered B and C, located on the east and west sides of North Wenhua Road. Exit B is equipped with an elevator.
B: Haisan Road

Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
