In the future, the Branch Line of Line 1 will not only be an extension of Line 1, but will also have transfer stations with the Phase II section of Line 11, Line 14, and the Line Sub-center.

The Branch Line project of Line 1 covers the central areas of Shijingshan District and the main functional areas of Fengtai Hexi. The construction of the project will increase the transport supply along the line, providing high-capacity and frequent rail transport service. Starting from the Bajiao Amusement Park Station, this line extends west to the Qinglonghu area of Fengtai District.
