To cope with the reopening of High Speed Rail Hong Kong West Kowloon Station on 15 January (Sunday), The Kowloon Motor Bus Co. (1933) Ltd. is resuming Route W2 [Jordan (West Kowloon Station) – Lam Tin (Circular)] with changes on its routeing.
High Speed Rail Hong Kong West Kowloon Station is reopening on 15 January. With the permission of the Transport Department, KMB is resuming Route W2 running to and from the West Kowloon Station to facilitate passengers in East Kowloon to take the High Speed Rail for the Mainland. Route W2 will also be re-routed, with the new one departing from Jordan (West Kowloon Station) and circulating between Kowloon Bay Business Area, Kwun Tong and Lam Tin. Passengers departing from the High Speed Rail Station can enjoy a more direct service to Kwun Tong. The new routeing also favours passengers travelling to the West Kowloon Station from Kowloon Bay Business Area and Kwun Tong.
