Causeway Bay North orVictoria Park (Chinese:銅鑼灣北) is a proposedstation of theMTRrapid transit network in Hong Kong, situated in the northern part ofCauseway Bay to the northwest ofVictoria Park onHong Kong Island. The station is part of theNorth Island line (NIL) proposal,[1] which includes the extension of theTseung Kwan O line from its presentNorth Point terminus toTamar station inCentral.
TheKCRC also proposed adding Causeway Bay North station as part of theSha Tin to Central Link (SCL), to be situated betweenExhibition Centre andHung Hom. However, a major drawback was that road traffic would be severely impacted, as this would involve closingGloucester Road for 5 years. Eventually, the station was eliminated from the SCL plan, after theMTR–KCR merger, and will only be part of the NIL if it is constructed.
In 2013, the name "Causeway Bay North" was mentioned in the Review and Update of the Railway Development Strategy 2000 as an intermediate station on the North Island line, instead of "Victoria Park".[2]
The terminus of the Tseung Kwan O Line is planned to be extended from North Point Station to Tamar Station, where it will intersect with the extended Tung Chung Line, and this station will be set up halfway between the stations. The underground section may pass through Tsing Fung Street flyover andVictoria Park Road.
