KMB Lai Chi Kok Depots
The old Lai Chi Kok Depot of Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB) in Po Lun Street, which was built in 1965, was a three-storey building with a total area of about 35,900 square metres.
The old depot was replaced by the new KMB Lai Chi Kok Environmentally-friendly Bus Depot. The new depot is located at No. 100, Hing Wah Street West in West Kowloon, which has a site area of 23,300 square metres. The new depot is built to provide maintenance for some 1,000 buses in the West Kowloon and South-West New Territories regions. It supports the operations of over 110 bus routes covering these regions, as well as a large number of cross harbour tunnel routes.
