History edit

The station got its current name on 27 February 2011.[5] This was the result of a reorganization on 25 December 2010, when the territory was incorporated into New Taipei. Service began with the opening of the Zhonghe Line. Another accessibility elevator was opened at exit 1; it was completed after a year of construction.
