Tuen Mun South extension
Hong Kong railway extension / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tuen Mun South extension is a proposed 2.4-kilometre (1.5 mi) extension of the MTR rapid transit network in Hong Kong. It extends the existing train service of Tuen Ma line to the tentatively named A16 station in Tuen Mun Area 16 and ultimately a new northern terminus, Tuen Mun South (Chinese: 屯門南), near Tuen Mun Ferry Pier. The extension will extend southwards from the current northern terminus, Tuen Mun station. The journey time from Tuen Mun South to Tuen Mun is estimated to be approximately 5 minutes.[2] The track is planned to run on a viaduct. So Tuen Mun Ferry Pier stop will be renamed as Tuen Mun South.
