Hong Kong To-do: edit purge Clean up all MTR station pages. They are literally all over the place. Two model pages are Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. They each describe a feature special to the station, Station layout, exit, and connections, as well as neighbouring stations and the station "box". We will also need plenty of updated pictures (e.g. removing all KCR-related images except those on the KCR article). Check that all pages have basically the same language structure as Tsing Yi Station and Sheung Shui Station. Links to location maps are good too. (Should also perform these checks on Chinese Wikipedia.) Clean-up pages that link with TVB, especially its series pages.

[edit] Why is Route 9 a circular road?

What surprises me is that the Highways Department integrated so many unrelated expressways in the New Territories to make one giant ring road.

Shouldn't at least ONE route be considered the "interstate" route, where it is supposed to stretch all the way from Hong Kong Island to the border crossing in Lok Ma Chau, and eventually extending to, say Guangzhou?

The usage of a circular road in the New Territories just shows how narrow-minded the government is with regards to cross-border travel. (At least in my opinion.) Does anyone have any opinion of this arrangement?--Kylohk 11:56, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
