Project Description

In late 1994, the HK Government announced an overall strategy for the further development of railways within the Territory. Highest priority was accorded to three projects: a new mixed freight/ passenger service from China and the Northwest New Territories to Kowloon; Mass Transit Railway extensions to Tseung Kwan O New Town and from Quarry Bay to Tin Hau. This Project covered these three railways. The railway operators were required to submit detailed proposals for the design and operation of the projects. TCL provided all planning advice in respect of assessing the proposed rail alignments, station locations, above station development proposals and likely construction/ operation inputs.
