This paper presents a comprehensive assessment of embedded rail technology implementation in existing metro line renovation through the case study of Xiaogang Station. The research examines the technical challenges, innovative solutions, and construction methodology employed in this pioneering project. The construction background, distinctive features, construction procedures, and solutions to the construction challenges encountered are introduced in detail. By comparing the preand postrenovation vibration, noise and Track Quality Index (TQI) on track, along with the monitoring of the postrenovation track condition, this study demonstrates the effectiveness of embedded rail track renovation in enhancing the performance of existing lines. The results indicate that this technology can significantly improve the vibration and noise reduction performance of the line while ensuring the continuity and safety of existing line operations.
