Railway Service Performance 2. Carrying more than 4 million passengers on average each weekday (i.e. Monday to Friday), the MTR Corporation Limited (MTRCL) is dedicated to operating a safe, reliable and efficient railway service for the people of Hong Kong. 3. From 1 January to 31 May 2012, out of the more than 733,000 train trips operated in the heavy rail network (comprising the Kwun Tong Line, Tsuen Wan Line, Island Line, Tsueng Kwan O Line, East Rail Line, West Rail Line, Ma On Shan Line, Tung Chung Line, Disneyland Resort Line and Airport Express), the number of delays of 8 minutes or more totalled 82. The figures categorised according to the cause of delay are as follows: 1 January to 31 May 2012 Equipment failure 48 Human factor 5 Passenger behaviour and 29 external factor Total 82 4. It can be noted that among the 82 delays in the heavy rail network, 78 delays were between 8 and 30 minutes; 3 were between 31 and 60 minutes; and there was one delay that exceeded one hour, which was the West Rail Line incident causing 93 minute delay and suspension of train service between Nam Cheong Station and Tsuen Wan West Station on 3 May 2012. Investigation showed that the incident was caused by a piece of composite synthetic gap filler which came loose from installations on the tunnel ceiling and came into contact with the 1 pantograph of the passing train.

  • Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways
    LC Paper No. CB(1)1377/09-10(01) Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways Railway Service Performance (2005 to 2009) Introduction This paper aims to provide information on railway service performance for the period between 2005 and 2009. Railway Service Performance 2. The MTR Corporation (MTR) places great emphasis on providing a safe and reliable railway service for its passengers. In benchmarking studies of major railways around the world by the CoMET group, the MTR’s performance is consistently amongst the best in safety, reliability and passenger journeys on time (see Annex 1). 3. Since the rail merger on 2 December 2007, the MTR’s train service performance has remained high, with 99.9% of passengers reaching their destinations within five minutes of their scheduled arrival times. 4. The railway system is made up of many different operating systems and hundreds of thousands of components which must work seamlessly together. With more than 7,000 train journeys being operated each day, a reliability rate of over 99% still means service delays can be expected. 5. The MTR takes each and every incident causing delay seriously. All incidents are investigated to enhance improvements in passenger service and reliability. 6. A list of railway incidents with delays of 8 minutes or more for the years between 2005 and 2009 is enclosed (see Annex 2). Railway incidents before the Rail Merger (2 December 2007) are presented separately as pre-merger MTR and pre-merger KCR cases for Members’ easy reference. 7. Over the five years reviewed, it can be noted that the overall railway performance has improved: - The total number of delays of 8 minutes or more has reduced from 329 in 2005 to 246 in 2009, representing a drop of 25.2%.
