Proposed Development

In March 2004, the MTR changed the planned location of the Sai Ying Pun (MTR) station back east but south of the initial alignment to under King George V Memorial Park. A source from MTR Corporation Limited (MTRCL) revealed to the local newspaper Ming Pao that this location was chosen to avoid any nuisance during works under major roads. The location would also better suit the needs of Mid-Levels residents,^[1] said. Part of the Park will be closed temporarily to the public for the duration of the construction.^[2]
