Both the line 1 and line 10 stations have underground island platforms. Line 10 has a split island platform, whilst line 1 has a normal island platform. The existing 8.5 meter wide transfer channel connecting the two platforms is insufficient to handle the large interchange volumes between the two busy lines. Daily transfer volumes typically reach 140,000 every weekday, peaking at 32,000 transfers in the AM peak period.[3] During rush hours about 10,000 passengers per hour transfer between the two lines in each direction.[4] The Beijing government is proposing the transfer channel be rebuilt into a large transfer hall to improve passenger circulation.[3]
There are eight exits, lettered A, B, C, D, E1, E2, F, and G. Exits D, E1, and E2 are accessible.[5][6]
