Line 18 of the Beijing Subway (Chinese: 北京地铁18号线; pinyin: běijīng dìtiě shíbāhào xiàn), also known as the Line 13-18 temporary through service line, is a metro line that serves the northern suburbs of Beijing, from Malianwa in the west in Haidian District to Tiantongyuandong in the east in Changping District. The line is 19.8 km (12.3 mi) long with 11 stations, and has a stabling yard in Xiaoxinzhuang (小辛庄停车场). It currently does not feature an interchange with Line 13. The line originally planned to open between Dongbeiwang and Tiantongyuandong at the end of 2025, and open Shangdi Software Park and Malianwa in 2026, but due to the faster than expected construction progress, the entire section opened on December 27, 2025.
