A new era in Hong Kong's transport ser- » vices began in 1982 with extensive railway development encouraging more people to: make their homes in the New Territories. Travelling time to the urban area was reduced considerably in May with the start of the electrified service on the Kowloon- Canton Railway (KCR) between Hung Hom and Sha Tin. The entire 34-kilometre- route to Lo Wu will be electrified in the summer of 1983, ending the 70 years of coal, then diesel, passenger train history. In addition, the Mass Transit Railway" (MTR), Hong Kong's biggest single eng- ineering undertaking, advanced further with the opening of its second line, from Central District to the growing industrial new town of Tsuen Wan. With over a million people already using the MTR daily, work continued on the Island Line, due for completion in 1985. In a link up between the two railways, an interchange was built to join the KCR and MTR at Kowloon Tong. On the
Tong. On the roads, buses, trams, minibuses and taxis help serve Hong Kong's public transport needs. However with continued growth in private car ownership, vehicle density is among the highest in the world, and so steps were taken during the year to discourage the use of private cars. The tramway provides an ever-popular, and still the cheapest, way of travelling along the urban north shore of Hong Kong Island. Meanwhile, with much of the territory surrounded by sea, waterborne services are a vital means of commuter and leisure-time transport.
