The section from Hung Hom to Admiralty Station on the Shazhong Line that was originally scheduled to open in the first quarter of next year will be delayed again.
The MTR has repeatedly pointed out that the East Rail delayed the implementation of the signal system last year, making the original goal of opening the Sha-Central Line cross-harbour section severe.
In August, the performance will further reveal that there has been a five-month delay in the Shazhong line project, and it is estimated that the opening may be as late as the third quarter of next year.
"Hong Kong 01" received the latest news, saying that after the MTR has been catching up with the progress, the latest implementation date for opening to traffic is the second quarter of next year. Together with the Tuen Ma Line, which was opened in June, the Shazhong Line will be fully opened to connect to Hong Kong Island.

Earlier this year, there was news that the MTR confirmed that the cross-harbour section of the Shah-Central Line would not be able to pass the traffic in the first quarter of next year. At that time, it was still evaluating how long it would be postponed and it hoped that it would be the last postponement.
In fact, when the Shazhong line was completed, the cross-harbour section was expected to open to traffic in 2020 or 2021. Later, due to the archaeological work at Songhuangtai Station, the scandal at Hung Hom Station and even the exhibition site problem, it was repeatedly postponed to the first quarter of next year.
The MTR announced today (22nd) that the last rail connection project for the cross-harbour section will be carried out at the end of this month. In the afternoon, it will meet with the media to explain the latest progress of the project. It is expected that further announcements will be made by then.
