The residential and commercial nodes in the Southern District mainly stretch along two clusters with one on the west, namely the Cyberport, Pok Fu Lam, Wah Fu Estate and Aberdeen, and another lying to the east, namely South Horizons, Lei Tung Estate, Wong Chuk Hang and the Ocean Park. In going to the city areas, the former cluster relies more on Pokfulam Road and Victoria Road, and the latter on the Aberdeen Tunnel. The Southern District is the only remaining district Page 1 in Hong Kong with no rail service. 4.

  • 2. Project Description
    Consultancy Agreement No. NEX/2301 South Island Line (East) Environmental Impact Assessment 2. Project Description 2.1 Project Background The South Island Line (SIL) was originally proposed as part of the Second Railway Development Study (RDS-2) completed in May 2000 as an extension to the existing railway network to serve the Southern District of Hong Kong. In June 2002, MTRCL submitted a preliminary proposal for a medium-capacity SIL, which involved a monorail system looping from University Station of the planned West Island Line (WIL) to the southern part of Hong Kong Island and back to Wanchai Station of the existing Island Line (ISL). The study identified that SIL would not be commercially viable without Government’s funding support. Subsequently, MTRCL further developed the proposed SIL as part of a Feasibility Study (FS) entitled “West Island Line and South Island Line Feasibility Study” which was completed in March 2004. After an evaluation of various alternative options, the FS recommended the implementation of the proposed SIL(E) from South Horizons to Admiralty, via intermediate stations at Lei Tung, Wong Chuk Hang and Ocean Park, for serving the Southern District and provision of a necessary depot at Wong Chuk Hang to support the operation of SIL, amongst other recommendations related to WIL. The FS also evaluated the feasibility of providing additional intermediate stations at Happy Valley and Wanchai. In February 2005, MTRCL submitted a project proposal to the Government for phased implementation of the SIL and WIL. In December 2007, the Executive Council gave the green light for MTRCL to proceed with preliminary planning and design of the SIL(E), which will be a medium capacity railway line running from Admiralty to South Horizons, with three intermediate stations at Ocean Park, Wong Chuk Hang and Lei Tung.
