Long Ping (Template:Zh) is an MTR Template:Lnl station located in the northern part of Yuen Long Town to the southeast of Long Ping Estate, in the New Territories of Hong Kong. The station is elevated over Yuen Long Nullah.
There are two public transport interchanges on the northeast and south sides of the station. There is also cycle parking nearby. A network of footbridges connects the station to Long Ping Estate, Yuen Long Plaza and other nearby housing estates.
History
Long Ping and Yuen Long stations were built under a combined contract, numbered CC-202, which was awarded to the AMEC-Hong Kong Construction Joint Venture. The contract, worth HK$1.76 billion, commenced in September 1999. A topping-out ceremony for both stations was held on 24 May 2002.[1]
The station opened on 20 December 2003 with the inauguration of the West Rail.[2]
On 27 June 2021, the KCR Template:Lnl officially merged with the Template:Lnl (which was already extended into the Tuen Ma line Phase 1 at the time) in East Kowloon to form the new Template:Lnl, as part of the Shatin to Central link project. Hence, Long Ping was included in the project and is now an intermediate station on the Tuen Ma line.
