The proposed Ngau Tam Mei Station is located within the scope of the Ngau Tam Mei Land Use Review Study to align with the overall development of the relevant study while meeting the transport needs of future developments in the area. The Northern Link will provide a comprehensive transport infrastructure network to residents living in the existing community and the proposed developments, thereby enhancing the transport connectivity between Ngau Tam Mei and its surrounding areas.

Station Location

The proposed Ngau Tam Mei Station is located near Chuk Yau Road, within the scope of the Ngau Tam Mei Land Use Review Study. According to preliminary planning, the majority of the population within the scope of the study will reside within walking distance of the proposed Ngau Tam Mei Station, making it easier for residents to walk to the station to take the efficient, convenient and low-carbon railway services, thereby providing them with more travelling options.

Station Explained

  • How was the location of Ngau Tam Mei Station determined?

    When planning the location of Ngau Tam Mei Station, we have carefully studied and examined various factors to complement the developments of the community, including population distribution and growth of the area, current and future planning and housing development, etc. Ngau Tam Mei Station will be constructed near the centre of the new developments in the neighbouring areas to provide convenience for most residents to reach Ngau Tam Mei Station within walking distance.

    In addition, the proposed location of Ngau Tam Mei Station is in line with the Ngau Tam Mei Land Use Review Study currently underway to meet the transport needs of future developments in the area.

  • How will the entrance / exit locations of Ngau Tam Mei Station be determined?

    When planning the entrance / exit locations of Ngau Tam Mei Station, we have carefully studied and examined various factors, including the need to set up the entrances / exits and relevant facilities at locations with a relatively high pedestrian flow, the need to complement the nearby pedestrian network and its ancillary facilities, the walking distance of passengers, pedestrian traffic during peak hours, environmental factors, technical feasibility, etc.

  • Construction Challenges

Construction interface coordination and integration

As the Northern Link is a large-scale, complex and challenging project that covers a large geographical area and involves a wide range of stakeholders, there is a need to conduct extensive consultation, address the concerns and balance the interests of various parties.

The proposed Ngau Tam Mei Station will be located within the scope of the Ngau Tam Mei Land Use Review Study. It is expected that the nearby new development projects within the study area would share a similar construction cycle with the Northern Link project. Therefore, compared to general construction works, it takes longer for the project team to coordinate and communicate the detailed design options and construction arrangements, including matters relating to construction interface integration with various project owners such as Government departments, public utility organisations and the relevant stakeholders, etc. to ensure various projects are complementary to each other and can be delivered in a timely and smooth manner to serve the community.

In addition, it is expected that the Ngau Tam Mei Station construction works will be in the proximity of the currently operating High Speed Rail tunnel. We must carry out protection works for the existing railway facilities before the commencement of the relevant works and closely monitor the excavation process to ensure the operation of the High Speed Rail will not be affected. We will also implement a series of mitigation measures as necessary to minimise the potential impacts on the public, surrounding neighbourhood and environment.

Do you know the depot for the Northern Link will be built next to Ngau Tam Mei Station?

Apart from constructing stations, railway tunnels and train tracks, the Northern Link project also include the construction of a depot for parking trains, shunting during peak hours, inspections and checks, maintenance and cleaning, etc., to serve the daily operational needs of the Northern Link and the future railway development.

The site proposed for the depot has to be along the railway alignment and must be a large piece of flat land to cater for the parking of trains. The depot should also be in line with the planning of new development areas and able to complement the needs of railway services. We conducted an initial feasibility study on several locations in the area near the proposed alignment.

At the same time, the Ngau Tam Mei Land Use Review Study, which the Government is currently carrying out, has already considered Ngau Tam Mei Station and its related railway facilities. Therefore, setting up a depot at Ngau Tam Mei Station will be a relatively more feasible option.

Do you know the inspiration for the Ngau Tam Mei Station theme colour?

The Northern Link connects neighbourhoods with abundant nature, beautiful scenery and historic buildings. When developing the theme colours and designs for each station, we have taken these communities’ unique styles, history and local landmarks as essential sources of inspiration. We hope the new stations can integrate harmoniously into the community while driving new developments.

The primary theme colour of Ngau Tam Mei Station represents Kai Kung Leng, a vast and vibrant mountain in the Ngau Tam Mei area. Colours echoing the nearby hiking trails and the former Yau Tam Mei Primary School are also used as highlights in the station design. With the ingenious use of colours, travelling on the Northern Link will be a remarkable journey to experience the distinctive culture and characteristics of the community as passengers will feel as if they are paying a visit to the Ngau Tam Mei community and immersing themselves in its natural beauty.

Note: The station names on the Northern Link are working titles only. As the planning and design works of the Northern Link project are still in progress, all drawings and visuals are provided for concept illustration only, and the content is subject to change.

Connecting past, present and future

Ngau Tam Mei consists of several indigenous and non-indigenous villages. Yau Tam Mei Village is the largest village among them, with a well preserved rural landscape, customs and cultures of the past. You will surely experience the splendour of the village when you are there!

Origin of the name

Ngau Tam Mei is located in the eastern suburb of San Tin, Yuen Long. It is also called "Yau Tam Mei" after the nearby Yau Tam Mei Village. When the villagers built the village primary school, they changed the character in the school's name from "Ngau Tam Mei" to "Yau Tam Mei" to make the school's name more elegant. The village's name was also changed accordingly thereafter.
