Safety Notes for Wheelchair / Motorized Wheelchair Users In stations • Travel at a speed equivalent to a walking pace inside stations especially on platforms. • Be aware of the location of pillars and corners, as other passengers might not see wheelchair / motorized wheelchair users and not be able to move out of their path in time to avoid an accident. • Use passenger lifts or stair lifts to move between different levels. Do not use escalators. On platforms • Stay away from platform edges and wait behind the yellow line on East Rail Line and Light Rail platforms especially when the train is arriving or leaving the platform. • Mind the gap between the platform and the train. • Portable ramps which allow wheelchair users to move easily between the platform and train are provided at all MTR stations (except Light Rail). Travelling on trains • Because of space constraints, each multi-purpose area of the train can accommodate only one motorized wheelchair or two manual wheelchair users. Wheelchair user can board the train through designated car and door by portable ramp under the assistance from station staff. Only one wheelchair user can be assisted to board by portable ramp per train. Subject to the prevailing condition, wheelchair users are welcome to board the train without staff assistance. • Do not rush into the train when the warning chime sound or the doors are closing. Wait for the next train. • Always park the wheelchair in the multi-purpose area and stabilize it with the locking device. Inside MTR trains, park the wheelchair facing the direction of travel; then hold the handrail. Inside Light Rail vehicles, park the wheelchair facing against the direction of travel. Stay close to the wheelchair crash pad and fasten the seat belt where provided. • Any accompanying passenger should stay with the wheelchair user throughout the journey. 12.

  • 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.
