=Platforms=
The station has an island platform each for Line 12 and Line 14 respectively. The Line 12 platform is located under Qifu Road, and the Line 14 platform is located under the east side of Airport Road, with Line 12 on the upper level and Line 14 on the lower level.
The two platforms are connected at the west end of the Line 12 platform and the north end of the Line 14 platform through the mezzanine transfer lobby, allowing passengers to transfer between the two lines. In addition, passengers can also transfer via the concourse.
History
The original plan for the second phase of Line 14 was to have Huangshi Road station at the intersection of the Airport Road and Huangshi Road.{{Cite web |title=广州市轨道交通十四号线一期及知识城支线工程环境影响报告书（简本） |trans-title=Environmental Impact Report for Phase I of Guangzhou Metro Line 14 and the Knowledge City Branch Line Project (Simplified Version) |url=https://www.mee.gov.cn/ywgz/hjyxpj/jsxmhjyxpj/xmslqk/201605/W020160522142795069456.pdf |website=Guangzhou Metro Corporation |date=July 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240324074316/https://www.mee.gov.cn/ywgz/hjyxpj/jsxmhjyxpj/xmslqk/201605/t20160522_338808.shtml |archive-date=2024-03-24 |archive-format=PDF |access-date=2025-06-14 |language=zh-Hans |format=PDF |via=Ministry of Environmental Protection of the People's Republic of China}} Later, several more stations were added to the line, and this station was moved south to its current location and renamed Xinshixu Station. Line 12 was originally planned to interchange with Line 14 at {{ill|Gangbei station|zh|崗貝站}} in the south. In order to meet the planning requirements of connecting to the Tangxi station (now Guangzhou Baiyun station), the western section of Line 12 was slightly modified to detour northward, so the interchange with Line 12 was moved to this station instead of {{ill|Gangbei station|zh|崗貝站}}.{{Cite news |url=http://gd.sina.com.cn/news/2017-08-22/detail-ifykcypq3083798.shtml |title=穗地铁14号线二期设8个站 南起火车站穿过地铁空白区 |trans-title=The second phase of Guangzhou Metro Line 14 will have 8 stations, starting from the railway station in the south and passing through the blank area of the subway |author=李天研 |work=Guangzhou Daily |date=2017-08-22 |via=Sina Corporation |access-date=2025-06-14 |language=zh-Hans |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240324025633/http://gd.sina.com.cn/news/2017-08-22/detail-ifykcypq3083798.shtml |archive-date=2024-03-24}}

On 8 April 2025, the preliminary names of the stations on the west section of Line 12 were announced. The authorities believed that the area referred to by "Xinshi" or "Xinshixu" had already developed into the two streets of Yuncheng and Xinshi, and continuing to use the project name might mislead passengers. Therefore, it was proposed to name it Qifu Road Station based on the road it is located on. However, many people suggested using the more well-known "Xinshixu".{{Cite news |url=https://huacheng.gz-cmc.com/pages/2025/04/08/SF136463854ef52221567d4f9b90fcc8.html |title=西洲站or槎头站？广州地铁10号线、12号线16个新站名征求意见 |trans-title=Xizhou Station or Chatou Station?
