亞洲第一大地鐵站30日在深圳開通!

The Futian high-speed railway station opened in South China's Shenzhen city on Wednesday, marking the long-expected launch of the Asia's largest underground railway station.

週三(12月30日)，中國南方城市深圳開啓了福田高速地鐵站，這也標誌着備受期盼的亞洲最大地鐵站正式啓用。

The station, located in downtown Shenzhen, Guangdong province, covers a total area of 147,000 square meters -- about the size of 21 football fields. Three underground floors can provide seats for 3,000 passengers, according to Guangzhou Railway Corporation.

據廣州地鐵公司報道，該車站位於廣東省深圳市區，佔地共14.7萬平方米，大約是21個足球場的面積，地鐵內共設三層，可容納3000名乘客。

The station is one of seven stops planned on the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link. The commute time between Shenzhen and Guangzhou is now shortened to 42 to 50 minutes.

這個地鐵站是廣州-深圳-香港高速地鐵線中的7個站點之一。深圳和廣州之間的通車時間縮短至42到50分鐘。

According to the train timetable, there will be 11 pairs of high-speed trains between the Futian Station and Guangzhou South Station each day from Wednesday to Jan 9. Another 12 round trips will be added to the schedule every day starting Jan 10.

根據列車時間表顯示，在12月31日至1月9日之間，福田站和廣州站之間每天共有11次列車運行。另外12輛環形運行車將於1月10日開始運行。

Xue Weihe, a local railway official, said the daily passenger flow through the station is expected to be 10,000 on average during the initial period.

一位當地的列車官員薛維和說道，在初始階段，這個站點每天的客流量預計平均爲1萬人次。

The express rail link, when fully completed, will slash travel time between Guangzhou and Hong Kong to about one hour. Meanwhile, residents in Shenzhen can reach Hong Kong in 15 minutes.

這條鐵路線整體竣工後，將會大大縮短廣州到香港之間的通車時間，通車時間將縮至約1個小時。同時，深圳居民在15分鐘內即可到達香港。
