Lok Ma Chau Cross Boundary Shuttle Bus Service during Christmas and New Year Holidays

It is expected that lots of passengers will use the Lok Ma Chau - Huanggang cross boundary shuttle bus service at Lok Ma Chau Public Transport Interchange during the Christmas and New Year holidays from December 24, 2002 to January 1, 2003. The Transport Department reminds passengers that the closing time of the Lok Ma Chau Huangguang boundary crossing is still 12 am. Passengers are advised to travel by rail as far as possible and plan their journeys.

Passengers are also advised to make their journeys during the less busy periods in late morning or early afternoon. As traffic at the Lok Ma Chau crossing is expected busy, the waiting time for the shuttle bus service could be much longer. Passengers should remain patient and observe order when queuing up at the Lok Ma Chau terminus.

Intending passengers are strongly advised to phone the New Hong Kong Bus Company at 2471 0792 for the queuing situation before departing for the Lok Ma Chau terminus, and pay attention to radio/TV announcements on the latest traffic conditions.
