[4][5] Originally, plans for the Xinzhuang Line did not include a station in the Daqiaotou (大橋頭) area.

However, as part of the city government's urban renewal policy, the area around the station was zoned for redevelopment and revitalization.

[8][9] The station has a light roof, glass curtain walls, and an arc ceiling.

[6] Interior station design is themed "Tales of an Important Bridge" (referring to Taipei Bridge) and features the Tamsui River, Dihua Street marketplace, and historic Daqiao Elementary School.

[10] The historic gate has since been moved back to its original position, and new swimming and play facilities have been constructed.
