Cheung Sha Wan Road - Mass Transit Railway

Mass Transit Railway

The Mass Transit Railway (MTR) was built beneath the road with three stations, namely, Sham Shui Po Station, Cheung Sha Wan Station and Lai Chi Kok Station. As the stations and the underground tunnels were constructed by cut-and-cover, the construction caused serious traffic congestion in the western New Kowloon.

Famous quotes containing the words mass, transit and/or railway:

    When over Catholics the ocean rolls,
    They must wait several weeks before a mass
    Takes off one peck of purgatorial coals,
    Because, till people know what’s come to pass,
    They won’t lay out their money on the dead—
    It costs three francs for every mass that’s said.
    George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    There’s that popular misconception of man as something between a brute and an angel. Actually man is in transit between brute and God.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Her personality had an architectonic quality; I think of her when I see some of the great London railway termini, especially St. Pancras, with its soot and turrets, and she overshadowed her own daughters, whom she did not understand—my mother, who liked things to be nice; my dotty aunt. But my mother had not the strength to put even some physical distance between them, let alone keep the old monster at emotional arm’s length.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)
