Hin Keng (Chinese: 顯徑) is an under-construction station on the East West Corridor of the MTR rapid transit network in Hong Kong, being built as part of the Sha Tin to Central Link project. The station is located near Hin Keng Estate in Tai Wai, Sha Tin District, New Territories. It will be an elevated station situated to the west of Hin Keng Estate and south of Hin Tin Playground. There will be one entrance approximately in the middle of the façade facing Che Kung Miu Road.
The station is being built on the site of the New Territories South Animal Management Centre and Shatin Plant Quarantine Station, facilities of the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, which were relocated to a new facility on To Shek Street in November 2013.[1]
Construction is well underway and a topping-out ceremony for the station was held on 30 April 2015, making Hin Keng the first Sha Tin to Central Link station to be topped out.[2]
