All-night tram trial stopped

Hong Kong Tramways will discontinue its trial all-night service after tonight, a director of Wharf (Holdings) Limited, which owns the company, said on Friday (November 9, 1990).

Mr lan Hamilton said the trials had been criticised by members of the Eastern and Wan Chai district boards as being too noisy ever since the scheme was introduced in August.

The tram company had decided to abide by their opinions, although overnight services would be maintained for special occasions and festivals, Mr Hamilton said.

He was speaking after a first aid competition organised by the company at the Hung Hom entrance of the Cross Harbour Tunnel.
