The West Island Line and South Island Line are two new proposed lines of the Hong Kong MTR metro system. Construction to the southern end of Hong Kong Island, which is at present not serviced by any rail transport, has been approved by the Executive Council of Hong Kong. Four schemes have been put forward, but so far there has not been a single plan that has not had significant drawbacks to it. Logo of the MTR corporation Causeway Bay station on the Island Line. ...

These new lines were originally proposed by the Second Railway Development Study (RDS-2) to provide direct linkage from the populated areas of Wah Fu and Ap Lei Chau in Southern District, to Central. Originally, the South Island Line project was not considered financailly viable without additional developments for more residents and employment in the Southern District. The construction of the West Island line also depends on reclamation and redevelopment of Western District. Wah Fu is an area located in Southern District, on Hong Kong Island. ...

Original proposal
Route and stations
 Alignment of Original Scheme The MTR Corporation Limited (MTRC) submitted its first proposal for the West Island line and South Island line in May of 2002. The new lines were intended to be included in a promotion to promote tourism in Aberdeen. The West Island line is an extension of the Island Line. Construction of the new West Island line was divided into two phases. Wikipedia does not have an article with this exact name. ...

Phase one would begin at the already existing Sheung Wan station. A further two stations, Sai Ying Pun and Belcher would be added to extend the length of the Island Line. Belcher will also serve as an interchange for the South Island Line. Phase two would include an extension to Kennedy Town. The construction of phase two, which will include a depot near Kennedy Town station, is subject to the land availability of the western reclamation.

Land reclamation is either of two distinct practices. ...
The South Island Line is a semi-circular line with nine stations. The South Island line is intended to serve the southern end of Hong Kong Island towards Aberdeen. It interchanges with the Island line at Belcher and at Wan Chai. From Belcher to Wan Chai, the other stations on the line are Cyberport, Wah Fu, South Horizons, Lei Tung, Wong Chuk Hang, Ocean Park, and Happy Valley. Wan Chai is a station on the Hong Kong MTR Island line. ...
On 21 January 2003, the Executive Council of Hong Kong gave MTRC permission to proceed with further planning on Phase 1 of West Island Line, and made modifications on the South Island Line project to achieve a more cost-effective option and the parallel development of Route 4. However, the first proposal has some major drawbacks. Specifically, construction of West Island Line as heavy railway type tunnels and stations would not include Kennedy Town if there is no Western reclamation. There would also be great environmental impact and traffic management challenge if West Island Line goes under Des Vouex Road West. There would not be an Aberdeen station for serving the Aberdeen area. Transfer station at Wan Chai does not cater well for the needs of cross-harbour trips (they must change to Island Line heading Admiralty and another change to Tsuen Wan Line for cross-harbour trains).

Preliminary scheme In order to respond to the criticism directed towards the original proposal, the MTRC started a feasibility study of the lines in mid-2003 to look for cost-effective options to improve the system. The study also evaluated the external benefits of the project and its impact on other modes of public transport. The company derived a modified proposal in November 2003 for the two new lines, with three options of alignment in the South Island Line part, to address the drawbacks in the initial scheme. The two lines proposed are medium capacity rail lines. 2003(MMIII) is a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Interchange Stations The above scheme has interchanges at Sai Ying Pun, Wong Chuk Hang, Admiralty and probably Wan Chai. They have the following characteristics to enhance transfers:
Sai Ying Pun
- West Island Line on upper island platform, Island Line on lower island platform. Transfer by short escalator ride.
Wong Chuk Hang - Double island platform with three tracks. West Island Line trains uses the center track while South Island Line trains use those on the two sides. Convenient cross-platform transfer can be made in both directions.
Admiralty - A new island platform will be built under Queensway. Two 100-metre transfer passages are built to connect the new station with existing station. Shortened transfer time can be made possible by installing escalators and conveyors. Possible passage can be made to connect the station of KCR Sha Tin to Central Link rail project.
Queensway is used to refer to several locations or roads: Queensway is a road in west London the Queensway is a highway running east-west through Ottawa Queensway is a neighbourhood in Ottawa. ...

Construction Methods Most of the sections of the three rail lines run underground, and most stations are underground stations too. The alignment across Cyberport and the segment along the nullah of Wong Chuk Hang will be on viaduct. A parallel bridge alongside the Ap Lei Chau Bridge will also be built. Cyberport (數碼港 Pinyin: Shùmǎ Gǎng) is a 240,000 m², campus-style, low-density project consisting of commercial, retail, hotel, entertainment and residential facilities, which are being built by Pacific Century CyberWorks Limited (PCCW), which later acquired and merged with Hong Kongs dominant fixed telephone firm. ...

More detailed construction methods on the running track and stations can be found here.
Rail System MTR predicts that a 200,000 ridership during peak hours on the new lines. Hence, a medium capacity system will be used. The rolling stock can be steel wheel over steel rail, similar to what MTR and KCR lines used. Rubber-tyred stock is more common in medium systems, and more flexible to decide the alignment of the rail lines as they can run on steep gradients and tight curves.

The KCR logo The Kowloon-Canton Railway, frequently abbreviated as the KCR, is the railway network providing intercity, suburban rapid transit and light rail passenger services in Hong Kong. ...
New 60-m long stocks running on rubber tyres with frequency from 2-4 minutes could meet the predicted ridership. To fit in the shorter rolling stock, stations on the new lines can be shorter than heavy rail stations.
Scheduled opening of the lines If an agreement can be made between the government of Hong Kong and MTRC to start building the line, the scheduled opening time for West Island Line and South Island Line is in 2009/2010.

Construction Cost According to the summary report of the new lines, the construction cost is between HK$14.6-16.5 billion. MTR has asked for government funding of less than half of the total cost. The remaining cost and the operational cost will be covered by MTR.
The economic downturn after 1998 has turned the budget of the government into a deficit. So the government was somehow reluctant to provide fundings for rail construction. A recession is usually defined in macroeconomics as a fall of a countrys Gross National Product in two successive quarters. ...

Residential, environmental, and some professional organisations support building the lines instead of highway. Rail links are more environmentally friendly, and will help ease congestion of the Aberdeen Tunnel. The lines can also help sustainable development and will preserve the shoreline along western and southern Hong Kong Island. Hong Kong Island (香港島, colloquially the Island side) is the island where the colonial settlement of the Hong Kong territory, Victoria City, was founded. ...
Other transport operators and various organisations oppose the rail link, claiming that the rail link could lead to severe competition between different modes of transport, and that reduction of road transport might eventually cause job losses. Some panel members stated that the projected population growth in the south cannot support the new lines, and that the government should have a thorough plan on how to develop the Southern District before implementing the rail links.
However, some panel members suggested that the new lines could help promote tourism in the area. They asked the government to moderate the various modes of transport upon the new lines' inaugurations so as to relieve concerns from the transport operators.
Government officials stated that the low ridership of KCR West Rail and its rail incidents warrant extra planning on the new rail lines to ensure enough ridership and appropriate, cost-effective system design. Therefore, the West Island Line and South Island line project was deferred, and "green lights" have been given to the detailed planning of the highway.
