The Arup Journal
KCRC EAST RAIL EXTENSIONS SPECIAL ISSUE 3/2007 The Arup Journal Foreword After 10 years' planning, design, and construction, the opening of the Lok Ma Chau spur line on 15 August 2007 marked the completion of the former Kowloon Canton Railway Corporation's East Rail extension projects. These complex pieces of infrastructure include 11 km of mostly elevated railway and a 6ha maintenance and repair depot for the Ma On Shan line, 7.4km of elevated and tunnelled route for the Lok Ma Chau spur line, and a 1 km underground extension of the existing line from Hung Hom to East Tsim Sha Tsui. Arup was involved in all of these, from specialist fire safety strategy for all the Ma On Shan line stations, to multidisciplinary planning, design, and construction supervision, and, on the Lok Ma Chau spur line, direct work for a design/build contractor. In some cases our involvement went from concept through to handover. For example, we were part of a special contractor-led team that carried out a tunnel feasibility study for the Lok Ma Chau spur line across the ecologically sensitive Long Valley. At East Tsim Sha Tsui station we worked closely with the KCRC and numerous government departments to re-provide two public recreation spaces - Middle Road Children's playground at the foot of the historic Signal Hill, and Wing On Plaza garden - examples that show the importance of environmental issues for the KCRC in expanding Hong Kong's railway network. This special issue of The Arup Journal is devoted to all of our work on the East Rail extensions, and our feasibility study for the Kowloon Southern Link, programmed to connect West Rail and East Rail by 2009.
