Chai Wan (Chinese:柴灣) is the easternterminus of theMTRIsland line onHong Kong Island, Hong Kong. It is the only station on the Island line that is elevated. The station is located at the junction ofChai Wan Road andIsland Eastern Corridor, and serves Siu Sai Wan andChai Wan, a primarily residential and industrial town. The bus terminus nearby has bus andminibus routes toSiu Sai Wan andStanley, as well as the nearby residential developments. Chai Wan was also the southernmost railway station in Hong Kong, prior to the opening ofLei Tung station on theSouth Island line on 28 December 2016.

There were no platform screen doors when this station was opened, but theMTR Corporation has retrofittedautomatic platform gates on both platforms in 2011.[1]

History

[edit]

The station was built on part ofChai Wan Park and the site of a pre-existing minibus terminus. Construction commenced in July 1982 and was carried out by the British contractorGeorge Wimpey. The foundation is formed by hand-dug caissons, while the structure comprises reinforced concrete poured in situ. Over 11,000 cubic metres of concrete was poured.[2]

It opened on 31 May 1985 as part of the first phase of the Island line.[3]

Passengers from Chai Wan going to Kennedy Town can board trains on either platforms. The platform from which a train will leave first is indicated on a display board.[4]

An overrun track is present to allow trains to stop and reverse direction if they travel beyond Chai Wan station. However, this set of tracks is rarely used, as trains arriving at Chai Wan station leave for Kennedy Town by pulling out of the same platform.

As this station is close to Chai Wan depot, after peak hours, some Island Line trains will suspend services and return to Chai Wan depot after clearing passengers at this station. The first signal will be sounded when the train enters the station. At the same time, the platform will make an announcement before the train arrives and when the train enters the station. After the train arrives, the second signal will be sounded before the doors are opened and passengers are dropped off. The destination display screen Depot will be displayed, and the platform display will show that this train is not carrying passengers, so that waiting passengers know that the train will not carry passengers when it arrives at the station. Before the train closes the door and leaves the station, the red and blue signal lights at the west end of the platform will light up with the word DP (meaning Depot) in white, and the horn will sound again, and it will drive directly back to Chai Wan Depot.

The same thing will happen after the last train to Chai Wan arrives here.
