Kwun Tong Station

Kwun Tong is a station on the MTR Kwun Tong Line in Hong Kong. The station was used to be the original terminus of the line until Lam Tin station opened in 1989. It is located in the Kwun Tong area, between Lam Tin station and Ngau Tau Kok station.

The station is above ground, unlike almost every other station in the system. Due to difficulties in installing platform screen doors (PSDs) in above ground stations, the MTR decided not to install PSDs in this station. However due to recent accidents of falling into the tracks, the MTR has installed APGs on the station's platform. It is located far away from most residential areas, causing many residents of Kwun Tong to take other means of transport in order to reach the station. There is a shopping centre and office tower, named apm Millennium City 5, connected to the station.

Beneath the station building is a road tunnel which diverts traffic along Kwun Tong Road from the roundabout around the station.

Station layout

Platforms 1 and 2 share the same island platform, and it is also curved, so the gap is large. During the Modified Initial System, platform 1 was used for trains to go to Shek Kip Mei (now Yau Ma Tei) before Lam Tin Station was built. At midnight, platform 1 is the termination platform of the      Kwun Tong Line, so trains can return to Kowloon Bay Depot.
