Based on past experience, when HK Observatory announces the hoisting of Typhoon no.8 within

2 hours, there are usually serious traffic jams at Kwai Tsing District. Bus services are adversely affected and it is difficult to support passenger demands. Should passengers be concentrated at Tsing Yi MTR, the facilities and services will be overloaded.
