MTR officials said a signalling fault near Mong Kok Station affected services on the Tsuen Wan Line for a short time on Thursday evening.

Trains had to travel at a slower speed, officials said, as they warned this would lead to longer waits for passengers at stations.

The MTR said repair work was carried out.

The travel alert was issued at around 6.20pm and around 15 minutes later staff said the problem had been fixed and services would be gradually returning to normal.
