1 Railway Development in Hong Kong KCRC Ma On Shan Line Tai Wai Station and Maintenance Centre Overview of the Maintenance Centre of the Ma On Shan Line at Tai Wai, as seen in early The Centre is a one-level podium structure with the ground level used for train maintenance and the upper deck ready for future property developments.

2 Construction of the Ma On Shan Line Tai Wai Station. This station is an extension to the existing Tai Wai Station of KCRC East Rail and has been merged into the existing station layout to form part of the transit facilities. Overview of the extension portion of Tai Wai Station showing its general spatial arrangement and structural layout. Falsework erected over Mei Tin Road as temporary support for construction of the linking section between Tai Wai Station and the Maintenance Centre. In the background is the completed podium structure of the Maintenance Centre.

3 View from the depot side showing the completed structure of the new Tai Wai Station extension portion. The link to the Maintenance Centre was still under construction at this time. The completed podium structure of the Tai Wai Maintenance Centre, as seen from the Tai Po Road side.

4 The passenger platform in the new Tai Wai Station. Passengers can get off from the platform on the left and board trains for the southbound line of East Rail heading towards Tsim Sha Tsui. The arrangement of the rail track at the entrance to the Maintenance Centre from Tai Wai Station. Note the merging track into the Depot from the East Rail line on the right side of the photo.

5 Other Stations on the Ma On Shan Line Overview of Sha Tin Wai Station and its neighbourhood in early 2003.

6 Construction of City One Station as seen from a nearby building. The building on the far left side is the Prince of Wales Hospital. Overview of Heng On Station and its neighbourhood in mid-2002.

7 The construction detail and formwork arrangement for the structural works of Heng On Station at its early stage. The work set-up for the Wu Kai Sha Station. The new land formed to the south side of the station (on the right in this photo) will be developed into a public transport interchange facility incorporating other property developments at a later stage.

8 Construction of the Portal Beams for the Viaduct Falsework erected for construction of a 30 m span portal beam crossing the carriageways near the junction of Ma On Shan Road and Sai Sha Road. Construction of a series of portal beams and column head supports for the viaduct near the Shek Mun Interchange.

9 Typical twin-section column head support with the cast-in-situ matching segments in position for receiving the forthcoming segments to form the viaduct section. A 35 m span portal beam near the Heng On Interchange with the hanging girder fixed above the portal to facilitate erection of the precast segments. The girder was tied down to the ongoing segment by tendons and the full span of the viaduct was erected by using the balanced cantilever method repeatedly. Construction of a pair of portal beams over the Siu Lek Yuen Channel. The foundations of the portal piers were formed inside the cofferdams with sides supported by sheet-pile walls.

10 Construction of the Viaducts The assembly of a set of overhead gantries used to erect the precast segments to form the viaducts. Note the rural village at the rear of the assembly yard; one of the oldest inhabited tribal villages in the Shatin area.

11 Placing the last segment for a span of the viaduct. After the correct positioning of the last segment, all the segments in the span were fine-tuned to adjust the alignment and level. Temporary stressing was applied afterwards to allow the span to rest temporarily on the column heads. Final adjustment was done again at the final stage when nearby spans were also in position.

12 A closer look at the overhead gantry on the deck level with the segments in position before sliding it forward to the next span. A section of long-span viaduct structure constructed using the balanced cantilever method near Tai Shui Hang Station. Another view of the overhead gantry awaiting erection of the next span crossing the 60 m Tate's Cairn Highway section.

13 A section of the viaduct near a portal frame which was erected with the balanced cantilever method. Since the portal was located in the middle of the busy Tate's Cairn Highway near Shek Mun Station, the segments were placed into position with the help of a large mobile crane stationed on ground level. Temporary closure of part of the highway was required during this period. The remaining viaduct span was then completed with the use of an overhead gantry. Placing the precast segments onto the underslung gantry. Note the rail track on the sides of the gantry to allow the segment to be moved forward or backward into the right position by rollers.

14 A few sections of viaduct temporarily stressed pending final adjustment at the north end of Shek Mun Station. A section of viaduct near Che Kung Temple Station constructed using the in-situ method with tubular steel supporting falsework. Detail of the supporting frame erected on top of a pier for mounting the overhead gantry. On the left side is the Shing Mun River channel. The viaduct section crossing the Siu Lek Yuen River channel heading to Shek Mun Station. Two sets of underslung gantries can be seen in the background for erection of the precast segments that formed the viaduct section.

15 Close-up view of the Siu Lek Yuen River channel with the cofferdams in place for construction of the piers of the portal beams. Several sections of viaduct erected using the balanced cantilever method near Wang Uk Chuen. These were temporarily positioned with tie rods and stressing cables until the cantilevered sections were ultimately connected to the approach section and stressed to form a continuous span.

16 The viaduct leaving Tai Wai Station runs along the east bank of the Shing Mun River channel heading in the Che Kung Temple direction. Foundation work was carried out on the right side of the viaduct as advance work for the associated development of the new station. Completed sections of viaduct crossing the junction of Lion Rock Tunnel Road and Tai Chung Kui Road. Close-up view at the side of the viaduct near City One Station with the track and power system being completed.

17 Viaduct approaching Heng On Station at its final completion stage. Viaduct approaching Wu Kai Sai Station near Lee On Estate. Standard noise barrier enclosures were provided where trains pass close to residential areas.

18 Viaduct crossing the Siu Lek Yuen Channel heading towards Shek Mun Station. The yellow portal crane was located in a work centre to support the installation of the precast parapet panels on the sides of the viaduct.

19 The viaduct crossing a series of newly re-aligned carriageways at the junction of Ma On Shan Road and Sai Sha Road near Tai Shui Hang Station. Another long-span viaduct section near re-aligned carriageway at Tai Shui Hang. Viaduct crossing the Heng On Roundabout before entering Heng On Station. Viaduct section with a train between Ma On Shan and Wu Kai Sha Stations.

20 Track Laying A detailed look at the viaduct on the railway level before the laying of the tracks. The rows of link bars were embedded in the precast segments for forming the side curb to hold the float slabs that restrain the rail tracks.

21 Forming the side curb to restrain the float slab using a specially designed travelling form system. Forming the side curb using a track-mounted curb-forming machine. This machine comprised the curb moulding panels, concrete conveyor and feeder, and the track pads that helped the machine to move forward continually to form the curb. Placing the resilient compound into slot holes in the float slab holding the bolts and base plates that grasp the rail tracks.

22 Close-up of the rail tracks inside a noise barrier hood with bypass track provisions. Rail tracks and overhead power cables for trains in the final completion stage.

23 Station Interiors Final touch-up of facilities and installation works within an openplatform station. Close-up of the station platform with the rail track already in use pending the final fixing of the noise-absorbing panels onto the parapets.

24 Interior of an open-platform station as seen before the final fitting out works. City One Station as seen on the track level. The slightly curved roof deck with its centre-supported portal frame configuration is a typical design for all the centre island-style stations.

25 View of the platform track in its operational status with the signboards and noise-absorbing panels in position. Views of the passenger platform.

26 The new station concourse at Tai Wai, now used as an interchange station between the KCRC East Rail and the Ma On Shan Line.
