Full Tuen Ma Line Sets to Connect the East and West of the New Territories Bringing Kowloon City and to Kwa Wan Into the Railway Network
PR046/21 26 June 2021 Full Tuen Ma Line Sets to Connect the East and West of the New Territories Bringing Kowloon City and To Kwa Wan into the Railway Network The full Tuen Ma Line (“TML”) will commence service tomorrow (27 June 2021), ushering in a new phase of railway transportation in Hong Kong, with the east and west ends of the New Territories being connected by a single line. Accompanied by Chairman of MTR Corporation Dr Rex Auyeung, Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, Mrs Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor, GBM, GBS, today (26 June 2021) officiated at the TML launch in Sung Wong Toi Station, where she also unveiled the in-station exhibition of relics discovered during the excavation for the station. The full TML sees the extension of the existing TML Phase 1 from Kai Tak Station to Hung Hom Station via two newly-built stations, Sung Wong Toi and To Kwa Wan, via Ho Man Tin Station finally connecting to what is currently known as the West Rail Line. With 27 stations along a route length of approximately 56 kilometres, the full TML will be the longest railway line in Hong Kong. As Kowloon City and To Kwa Wan become reachable by railway service, those who live and work along the alignment will enjoy greater ease of travel, and the communities around the stations will also gain new impetus for growth and development. Dr Rex Auyeung, Chairman of MTR Corporation said, “TML is a railway line that will benefit everybody in Hong Kong.

LC Paper No. CB(4)1029/20-21(01) Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways Operating Arrangements for the Tuen Ma Line (Translation) Introduction The Tuen Ma Line (“TML”) under the Shatin to Central Link (“SCL”) project will be commissioned on 27 June 2021. This paper informs Members of the operating arrangements for the TML. Background 2. The SCL project consists of two Sections: (a) the Tai Wai to Hung Hom Section comprising the stations of Tai Wai, Hin Keng, expanded Diamond Hill, Kai Tak, Sung Wong Toi, To Kwa Wan, Ho Man Tin and expanded Hung Hom. 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. The alignment of the TML and updated MTRCL route map are at Annex 1. 3. The SCL is funded and owned by the Government under the concession approach. In preparation for the commissioning of the TML, the Government, the Kowloon-Canton Railway Corporation (“KCRC”) and the MTR Corporation Limited (“MTRCL”) make an arrangement similar to that of the commissioning of the TML1 in February 2020. Prior to the commissioning of the TML, the Government will vest the TML in KCRC which is wholly owned by the Government and then KCRC will grant the right to operate the TML to MTRCL under the service concession approach.

PR003/20 17 January 2020 Tuen Ma Line Phase 1 Commences Service
PR003/20 17 January 2020 Tuen Ma Line Phase 1 commences service on 14 February 2020 The MTR Corporation is making its final preparation for the opening of Tuen Ma Line (“TML”) Phase 1 on 14 February 2020, commencing services at three new stations, namely Hin Keng Station, the expanded part of Diamond Hill Station and Kai Tak Station. The MTR Corporation will provide special fare promotions for TML Phase 1. Upon the opening of TML Phase 1, passengers travelling on the Ma On Shan Line (“MOL”) will be able to travel to Kai Tak Station in East Kowloon via Hin Keng Station and Diamond Hill Station without the need to interchange. The expanded Diamond Hill Station will become a new interchange station between TML and the Kwun Tong Line, allowing passengers to travel from the New Territories (NT) North and NT East districts to the East Kowloon and Hong Kong Island East districts in a more efficient and convenient manner. Such new routing will help relieve the current peak passenger load between Tai Wai and Kowloon Tong Stations on the East Rail Line. At the end of January, all passenger trains on the MOL will carry out non-passenger trains testing along the new railway section, i.e. between Hin Keng and Kai Tak Stations. Train frequency of the MOL during peak hours will be slightly adjusted to around 3.5 minutes intervals, similar to the operation arrangements upon TML Phase 1 Opening. Passengers are reminded to pay attention to our announcement and arrangements. The timing for the full opening of TML would depend on the implementation of the suitable measures at Hung Hom Station extension and its connecting structures, and is expected to take place in 2021.

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).
