  • Vending Machines Set up at 10 MTR Stations for Public to Collect COVID-19 Specimen Collection Packs with Convenience
    PR080/20 6 December 2020 Vending Machines Set Up at 10 MTR Stations for Public to Collect COVID-19 Specimen Collection Packs with Convenience The MTR Corporation has been closely monitoring the pandemic and fighting the virus with the community. To facilitate the Government’s Enhanced Laboratory Surveillance Programme for the public to access COVID-19 testing service with convenience, vending machines will be set up at ten MTR stations for the public to collect COVID-19 specimen collection packs starting tomorrow (7 December 2020). Following communication with relevant government departments, ten stations across the MTR network have been identified for the purpose, namely Ngau Tau Kok, Kwai Fong, North Point, Tiu Keng Leng, Wong Chuk Hang, Tai Wai, Tai Po Market, Siu Hong, Kowloon and Tsing Yi stations. About 10,000 specimen collection packs supplied by a government contractor per day will be, in general, evenly distributed to the vending machines located in the unpaid area of these stations. Each station will have a fixed supply each day and each person can collect one pack while stocks last. Members of the public can collect the packs with their Octopus, free of charge, at the stations during operating hours. “Traffic News” of the MTR Mobile will provide information about the supply of specimen collection packs including whether stations are out of stock or packs are still available for the public’s reference. Under the premise of fighting the pandemic, the Corporation will communicate with relevant government departments and suitably adjust the arrangements for distribution points based on actual demands to facilitate the Government’s measures.

This section will join the original Ma On Shan Line and the existing West Rail Line to form the TML, while the TML Phase 1 (“TML1”), comprising the section between Tai Wai and Kai Tak, was commissioned in February 2020; and (b) the Hung Hom to Admiralty Section comprising the stations of expanded Hung Hom, Exhibition Centre and expanded Admiralty – this is an extension of the East Rail Line from Hung Hom across the Victoria Harbour to Wan Chai North and Admiralty.

  • PR042/21 12 June 2021 the Tuen Ma Line to Kwa Wan Station Open
    PR042/21 12 June 2021 The Tuen Ma Line To Kwa Wan Station Open Day Offers Early Glimpse of Station Highlights to Visitors With the full opening of the 56-km Tuen Ma Line (TML) on 27 June 2021, the brand new To Kwa Wan Station and Sung Wong Toi Station will also come into service. Around 2,600 visitors with registered tickets (each ticket for up to four persons for entry at the same timeslot) enjoyed a preview of To Kwa Wan Station at an Open Day today (12 June 2021), ahead of the official opening. From 10am onwards, pre-registered visitors arrived at the station to experience the new customer service concept and station facilities, including the Smart Customer Service Centre and caring facilities. They also met with the robot assistants who were on duty at the station. One of the focal points of attention is a 54-metre wall installation situated at the non-paid area of the concourse. Entitled ”Home”, this unique station artwork was created by a local artist Ms Leung Mee-ping with the participation of local residents. Over 100 residents in the area have contributed household items with sentimental value that is captured in the short synopsis in the art piece. “MTR Corporation strives to connect communities and we were glad to see the visitors, including local residents, railway enthusiasts and the general public, sharing their excitement and anticipation for the opening of the new line,” said Dr Jacob Kam, Chief Executive Officer of MTR Corporation. “The full TML will provide not only a fast and convenient railway service to the residents nearby, but also enhanced connectivity between various parts of Hong Kong.” An Open Day will be held at Sung Wong Toi Station, another brand new station along the TML, for pre-registered visitors to visit tomorrow (13 June 2021).
