Central South () was a proposed MTR station on the Sha Tin to Central Link, planned to serve as the southern endpoint of the North South Corridor. It was listed as a Future Station in the MTR annual reports of 2012 and 2013.

History

Originally referred to as Central West in the initial KCRC proposal, the station's location was set further west than its later planned site. Due to engineering difficulties caused by soft ground conditions at the original position, KCRC modified the design in 2004, relocating the station to an area south of Upper Albert Road.

By 2008, the Government reviewed MTR’s updated proposal, which included abandoning the Central South station project while awaiting a final decision. In March 2008, it was officially announced that construction would not proceed, as no appropriate location had been secured.
