Future Development

A further southern extension to Xiangtan North railway station in neighbouring Xiangtan City started construction in 2019 with a planned opening in 2023.^[2] The extension is 17.29 km long with 8 stations. In the future this extension will be extended northward to Changsha West Railway Station and separated from Line 3 to be operated as its own independent line.^[3]
