Jinqiu Road station
railway station in Dachang, People's Republic of China
Jinqiu Road (simplified Chinese: 锦秋路; traditional Chinese: 錦秋路; pinyin: Jǐnqiū Lù) is a metro station on the Line 15 of the Shanghai Metro. Located at the intersection of Qilianshan Road and Jinqiu Road in Putuo District, Shanghai, the station was scheduled to open with the rest of Line 15 by the end of 2020. However, the station eventually opened on 23 January 2021 following a one-month postponement. It is located in between Gucun Park station to the north and Fengxiang Road station to the south.
Although Jinqiu Road station is situated on the spot where Shanghai Metro Line 7 intersects with Line 15 as the former travels underneath Jinqiu Road, there is no interchange available to Line 7 as it is located midway between two Line 7 stations, Qihua Road and Shanghai University. Originally, the northern terminus of Line 15 was intended to be at Qihua Road. However, on 28 December 2011, Line 15 was shifted to instead terminate at Jinqiu Road station, which would provide no direct connection to Line 7. This has stirred controversy among residents over Line 15's already lack of convenient connections with other major metro lines such as Line 2 and Line 10. Planners reconsidered and extended Line 15 north by one station in order to connect with Line 7 at Gucun Park. Passengers who wish to interchange between Lines 7 and 15 must use Gucun Park station, even though the closest Line 7 station from Jinqiu Road is Shanghai University.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Jinqiu Road station” as railway station in Dachang, People's Republic of China. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the places & architecture register because the source frames it as railway station in Dachang, People's Republic of China. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 23, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q15895217. Authority coordinates are 31.323, 121.377. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2020, 2021 and 2011.
A single description cannot reconcile every naming convention, rebuilding phase or administrative transfer associated with a place. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
