NEWS FROM HONG KONG
HONG KONG - The Hong Kong MTR manager decided that this Saturday morning (5/10/2019) all MTR services covering all train lines, including Airport Express trains, Light Rail and MTR buses could not be carried out. This decision was taken after a joint assessment was carried out with the police and other relevant government departments.
"Later we will review all relevant circumstances today. Any updates to service arrangements will be announced as soon as possible, ”said the official notification given by the MTR manager through its official website.
This decision itself is an excess of the outbreak of violence that occurred in several districts in Hong Kong which lasted until after midnight. "Maintenance staff must ensure their own safety before they can travel to damaged stations to inspect and assess the extent of damage at our stations, and to carry out repair work," wrote the MTR manager.
