Located at the intersection of Yanggang Road and Caoying Road in the Qingpu District of Shanghai, Caoying Road station serves as a major transportation hub for the area. It is located near the Yinggang Coach Terminal (simplified Chinese: 盈港客运站; traditional Chinese: 盈港客運站; pinyin: Yínggǎng Kèyùn Zhàn), which formerly served as a major bus terminal with local and intercity connections. However, with the opening of the metro station, many services were relocated to a bus terminal directly adjacent to the station.[2]
An underground structure, the station's concourse, located one level below the street, can be accessed from three entrances. The concourse has a customer service counter, fare gates, and ticket machines. The platform level consists of an island platform, with toilets located on the platform's west end. Like all stations on Line 17, Caoying Road station is fully accessible. An elevator connects the street level to the concourse near Exit 3, while another connects the concourse to the platform within the fare-paid zone.[3]
