May Road (Peak Tram)

Previous May Road Station

May Road (Chinese: 梅道) is an intermediate station of the Peak Tram funicular railway line. It is located on May Road at Mid-levels, Central and Western District, Hong Kong, 180 m above sea level and is named after Francis Henry May, the 15th Governor of Hong Kong.

The station comprises a single platform on the western side of the single track. May Road passes over the tramway at the downhill end of the station on a bridge, with a passing loop at the Victoria Peak end allowing uphill and downhill trams to pass.

As the station is located in a high-income residential area which most residents have their own private cars, the usage is relatively low. The station is a request stop at which tram cars will stop only if passengers press the request button inside the tram compartment or at the station. No ticketing equipment is provided on the platform.
