Po Lam Station

Po Lam is a Hong Kong MTR station located in Po Lam. It is the northern terminus for the Tseung Kwan O Line. It proceeds to Hang Hau station. Although the station is at ground level, it is covered, though not completely sealed, from the outside.

Po Lam station's main entrance is on Mau Yip Road, where five pedestrian footbridges link the station to a public transport interchange for ground transport. It is possible to directly access Metro City and The Pinnacle from the concourse of the station. Another footbridge crosses Po Fung Road and allows residents of Po Lam Estate, Ying Ming Court and Well On Garden direct access to the station.

Station layout

Unlike most MTR stations, the concourse, gates and platform are at the same level, and there is only one platform from which trains depart in the same direction as they arrived. This necessitates the halting of trains from Hang Hau midway between the stations while a train currently at the station departs. At the same time, any trains arriving at Po Lam will only stay for a much shorter time before departing when compared to other MTR terminals. The single track design (i.e. the consequent lengthened train turnback time) limits the maximum train service frequency of the Tseung Kwan O Line.

Po Lam

Po Lam (Chinese: 寶琳) is an area in the northern part of Tseung Kwan O, New Territories, Hong Kong. The name of the area came from the first road in Tseung Kwan O, the Po Lam Road, built in 1950s. An MTR station with the same name is located there.
