At least 18 other MTR stations have closed early. Services are due to end at 11.30 pm on weekdays this week.

On the Tsuen Wan and Kwun Tong lines, Tsim Sha Tsui, Yau Ma Tei, Mong Kok, Kwai Fong, Whampoa, Wong Tai Sin and Kowloon Bay are now closed.

Tseung Kwan O and Hang Hau are closed on the Tseung Kwan O Line.
