Long Ping () is an MTR station positioned in the northern part of Yuen Long Town, situated southeast of Long Ping Estate within the New Territories, Hong Kong. This elevated facility is constructed above the Yuen Long Nullah.
The station is served by two public transport interchanges located on its northeast and southern sides, complemented by nearby bicycle parking spaces. Pedestrian footbridges connect the station directly to Long Ping Estate, Yuen Long Plaza, and adjacent residential complexes.
History
The construction of Long Ping and Yuen Long stations fell under contract CC-202, which was awarded to the AMEC-Hong Kong Construction Joint Venture for a total of HK$1.76 billion, commencing in September 1999. The project reached a significant milestone with a topping-out ceremony held on 24 May 2002.
Long Ping station began operations on 20 December 2003, coinciding with the inauguration of the West Rail line.
On 27 June 2021, the KCR West Rail line merged with the MTR Ma On Shan line to form the new Tuen Ma line as part of the Shatin to Central Link initiative. As a result, Long Ping transitioned into an intermediate stop along the Tuen Ma line.
