History
Initially opened on 18 September 1988 under the name Ferry Pier (), this stop coincided with the official launch of the Light Rail Transit system, which was inaugurated the previous day by Anne, Princess Royal, who unveiled a commemorative plaque that remains onsite. Subsequently, the stop was renamed Ferry Pier Terminus (), before adopting its current name, Tuen Mun Ferry Pier (), on 13 June 2010.
Pedestrian Safety Concerns
The layout of this stop positions pedestrian walkways in close proximity to the tracks, posing potential hazards when passengers cross between platforms as trains approach. To address these risks, pedestrian crossing signals are activated whenever trains are near to enhance safety.
