Project Description:

The project is located in the Xilang Depot of Guangzhou Metro Line 1, with a total construction area of about 5515 square meters. The National Engineering Laboratory for Safety and Operation and Maintenance of Urban Rail Transit System is the only national engineering research center in the rail transit industry, which is based on metro construction and operation units, rooted in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao, serving the national strategy of "Greater Bay Area on rails", and facing the safety and operation and maintenance of urban rail systems. It has formed a technological innovation platform for the whole life cycle innovation research and reality verification environment of subway, city, intercity railway and tram, supporting the integrated and coordinated development of rail transit planning and design, engineering construction, operation service and equipment manufacturing, and serving national strategies such as "transportation power", "manufacturing power" and "One Belt, One Road". It is positioned as a national strategic scientific and technological force that takes the strategic needs of the country and the industry as the starting point, focuses on solving the "stuck neck" technical problems in economic and social development, improves the efficiency of industrial innovation, and promotes the deep integration of the innovation chain and industrial chain.
