The MTR Corporation said the Tsuen Wan Line will begin operating with a new signalling system starting Sunday, following extensive tests, safety checks, and inspections.
According to the operator, the system switchover will take place after services end tonight. From the first train on Sunday, the Tsuen Wan Line will run with the upgraded signalling system, with regular train schedules expected to be maintained.
Passengers are advised to stay updated on the latest service announcements while travelling on the line tomorrow.
During the initial period of operation, minor issues may arise that will not impact passenger safety. These could include misalignment between train doors and platform screen doors, as well as automatic speed adjustments in certain sections.
The MTR says it will closely monitor the new system and make any necessary adjustments to ensure smooth operation of train services.
Procedures and contingency measures have been put in place for the switchover, with extra operational and engineering staff stationed along the Tsuen Wan Line to address any service issues that may arise during the transition.
