    Contribution from Peak Tramways Company, Limited

    The 6th Generation Peak Tram is set to make its long-awaited public debut with its launch on 27 August 2022, marking a new chapter in the history of one of Hong Kong’s most beloved icons. The launch of the new generation Peak Tram and terminus ushers in a fully redesigned and vastly improved passenger experience, along with newly renovated termini with upgraded facilities, and a greater capacity for serving visitors from around the world.

    A new recreational experience with enhanced passenger services

    To provide a more enjoyable, efficient and comfortable experience, Peak Tramways has completed a significant upgrade project at a cost of HK$799 million. The project included brand new tramcars, the replacement of all haulage, control and signalling systems, new ropes and track rails, and the refurbishment of its Central and Peak Termini to facilitate the beautiful new, larger capacity tramcars. The Central Terminus has been extended to provide covered, temperature-controlled arrival and waiting areas for up to 1,300 people. Platforms and tramcar floor levels have been aligned to provide enhanced step-free access for people with disabilities.

    In addition to reducing passenger waiting times by over 70%, visitors will be greeted by a dynamic, engaging and brand-new entertainment experience. The new experience introduces 5 engaging zones that include: Eye of Infinity, The Beating Heart, An Icon is Born, Once Upon a Tram, and Go Wild at the Peak at the Central Terminus. A new and informative Audio-Visual display at the Peak Terminus has also been created. The comprehensive redevelopment has been meticulously engineered to offer local and non-local visitors a spectacular passenger experience.

    Mr Martyn Sawyer, The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, Limited (HSH), said, “We are incredibly excited to launch the 6th generation Peak Tram, marking a significant milestone in the history of this much loved icon which has served Hong Kong residents and visitors since 1888. The Peak Tram has always been a must-see attraction and with this upgrade project, we believe we have taken it to the next level and it can take its place among the world’s best visitor experiences.”

    Ms May Tsang, General Manager of the Peak Complex, added “We are looking forward to welcoming Hong Kong residents and visitors to experience our beautiful new Peak Tram, the spectacular audio-visual experience in the Central Terminus, and our stunning new sculpture ‘Eye of Infinity’ by Australian artist Lindy Lee, as well as The Peak Tower and Sky Terrace 428.”

    “To show our gratitude to Hong Kong residents, and also encouragement during this time of Covid-19, we are offering an exclusive opening promotion. We are confident that the people of Hong Kong will love the new ride and modern classic design of the 6th Generation Peak Tram, and the vastly enhanced entertainment experience,” added Ms Tsang.
