History
In June 2018, it was reported that MTR Corporation (MTRC) intended to introduce a new station between and , which would replace the Tuen Mun Swimming Pool site and facilitate the construction of around 8,000 residential units.
By May 2019, Michael Tien, former chairman of KCRC and member of the Legislative Council transport panel, suggested implementing this station through a "Rail + Property" approach. This strategy involves MTRC financing the construction while the government allocates land for housing projects. The proposal includes developing between 6,000 and 7,000 private apartments alongside approximately 13,000 public housing units.
The Hong Kong Government formally published the station's inclusion in the Tuen Mun South extension in January 2022, with environmental impact approval secured by July 2022.
