The MTR today announced, In light of the resumption of classes for all schools in late September, MTR Corporation will enhance weekday train services in mornings and around noon starting from 23 September. To cope with the increase in anticipated passenger demand due to the resumption of classes, all local railway lines (except Airport Express and Disneyland Resort Line) will step up train service during the period of 6:18 am to 7:15 am (prior to morning peak hours) and 12:00 noon to 2:00 pm on weekdays starting from 23 September. The MTR spokesman also mentioned after taking prudent consideration of the pandemic and passenger demand, the Corporation will not provide overnight train service on Mid-Autumn Festival on October 1. “We will keep a close eye on the operations and deploy additional trains to serve passengers as and when needed.”
