The first step in realising the South Island Line (West) has been taken.
We received confirmation that the Transport and Housing Bureau (THB) has invited the MTR Corporation Limited in June 2019 to submit a proposal for the South Island Line (West) project. This line will include stations at Wong Chuk Hang, Aberdeen, Tin Wan, Wah Fu, Cyberport, Queen Mary Hospital and HKU.
We will clarify with the MTRC what the procedure will be for soliciting community input in determining the preferred alignment. The survey we conducted earlier showed that while 78% of the residents support an MTR station in Pokfulam, 83% prefer the rail to be underground.
We will keep you posted.
南港島線（西段）剛踏出第一步。
運房局確認已於2019年6月邀請香港鐵路有限公司提交南港島線（西段）的建議書，途經港鐵站包括黃竹坑、香港仔、田灣、華富、數碼港、瑪麗醫院及香港大學。
我們已去信港鐵詢問他們就鐵路走線及其他事宜諮詢居民的時間表。據我們早前的意見調查顯示，78％的居民支持於薄扶林區設置港鐵站，而要求鐵路以地下走線形式興建的更高達83％。
如有最新消息，我們會再作匯報。

Chief Executive Carrie Lam confirmed that planning and implementation has yet to start for the seven new railway projects identified in 2014, including MTR South Island Line (West). Recent MTR troubles were among the reasons given for the lack of progress.
行政長官林鄭月娥指出南港島線西段是2014年7個建議興建的鐵路項目之一，惟至今所有項目均未落實規劃，其中一個原因是政府及港鐵忙於處理現有鐵路問題。

In a 1221 page response to the many questions from Legislators regarding the Budget, we spotted on page 96 that government confirmed its intention to invite the MTR Corporation Limited within this year to submit a proposal for the South Island Line (West) project. Stations are expected to include HKU, Queen Mary Hospital, Cyberport, Wah Fu, Tin Wan, Aberdeen and Wong Chuk Hang. We support the MTR as long as the rail is built underground. See our report in 2014.
We will update the community as and when more news becomes available.
每年立法會議員都會就財政預算案提出書面問題，政府昨日發佈了一份1087頁的文件回覆各位議員的質詢。我們發覺當中第82頁政府表示有意在今年內邀請港鐵公司就南港島線(西段)提交建議書。我們預計沿途港鐵站包括香港大學、瑪麗醫院、數碼港、華富、田灣、香港仔及黃竹坑。我們的意見是要求薄扶林段採用地底型式興建，詳情可瀏覽我們於2014年的報導。
