Causeway Bay North or Victoria Park (Chinese: 銅鑼灣北) is a proposed station of the MTR rapid transit network in Hong Kong, which would be situated at the northern part of Causeway Bay to the northwest of Victoria Park on Hong Kong Island. The station is part of the North Island line (NIL) proposal,[1] which includes the extension of the Tseung Kwan O line from its present North Point terminus to Tamar station in Central.
The KCRC also proposed adding Causeway Bay North station as part of the Sha Tin to Central Link (SCL), to be situated between Exhibition Centre and Hung Hom. However, a major drawback was that road traffic would be severely impacted, as this would involve closing Gloucester Road for 5 years. Eventually, this station was eliminated from the SCL plan altogether after the MTR–KCR merger, and will only be part of the NIL if it is constructed.
In 2013, the name "Causeway Bay North" was mentioned in the Review and Update of the Railway Development Strategy 2000 as an intermediate station on the North Island line, instead of "Victoria Park".[2]
