Take the minibus to the Tai Wai Tun Ma Line, which is 2 cents more expensive than the minibus.

Ms. Chen, who was picking up and dropping off the children from Hin Keng Village, said that although there is an extra option after the train is opened, it is more convenient, but I believe that it will be mainly used for the route between Tai Wai Station and Hin Keng Station in the future. Many residents in the village are used to getting in and out of Tai Wai and Hin Keng by minibus. The fare is 3.7 yuan, which is lower than the MTR's 3.9 yuan. Chen Xiao said, "I would go too far for two cents. But it will indeed continue to take minibuses. "

Mr. Huang, a resident of Hin Keng Village, said that the new route failed to reach Hong Kong Island and had little effect. (Photo by Liang Huanmin)

In addition, Mr. Huang, a resident, believes that the first phase of the Tuen Ma Line only runs along the Ma On Shan Line to Kai Tak Station. Since it is less accessible to relevant places, it currently only operates three stations, which has little effect. It will be necessary to wait for the future traffic to Hong Kong Island Will choose. He pointed out that because the railway line is mainly "Shangcun" of Xianjing Village, it may not be too convenient for residents of "Xiacun" who live far away. "It may be convenient to travel past Tai Wai."
