NWFB and Citybus Service Enhancement for Dragon Boat Festival
(19 June 2015, Hong Kong) In order to meet passenger demand at Dragon Boat Festival,
New World First Bus (“NWFB”) and Citybus will strengthen services on Saturday, 20 June.
The first departure of Citybus Express Route 260 from Central (Exchange Square) will be
advanced to 6:55am. In addition to service strengthening, there will be special departures
from Stanley Main Beach to Central from 3:30pm to 7:00pm.
NWFB Route 9, 14 and 65 and Citybus Route 73 and 973 will strengthen service subject to
demand. There will be headway adjustment for Citybus Route 6 and 6X, and some departures
of Route 6 will omit Ma Hang. In conjunction with crowd control measures, the terminating
point of Route 314 Stanley bound will be altered to Stanley Main Beach, omitting stops from
Hong Kong Sea School to Stanley Police Station. Also, arrangements of the abovementioned
routes might be adjusted subject to actual conditions and the instructions of Police on the spot.
Due to temporary closure of Sand Martin Bridge during the Dragon Boat Race in Shatin,
NWFB Route 798, traveling between Fo Tan and Tiu Keng Leng, will be diverted via Banyan
Bridge, Fo Tan Road and Yuen Wo Road from 7:00am to 2:00pm while the location of the bus
stops enroute will remain unchanged.
