Serving as an interchange station, Tuen Mun connects with both the Tuen Mun stop and Ho Tin stop. A nearby public transport interchange links directly to the station concourse through escalators and stairways.

History

The location of Tuen Mun station was formerly occupied by San Fat Estate, recognized as Tuen Mun's inaugural public housing estate, which was demolished in 2001 to facilitate the station's development.

A commemorative plaque within the concourse marks the station’s topping out ceremony, which was unveiled on 14 November 2001 by K.Y. Yeung, then Chairman and CEO of KCR Corporation. The station commenced operations alongside the West Rail line on 20 December 2003.

On 1 August 2013, three additional entrances—C3, D, and E—were introduced to offer direct access to the neighboring V City shopping mall.

The West Rail line extended its service to Hung Hom station in 2009 and was subsequently incorporated into the enlarged Tuen Ma line in 2021 under the Shatin to Central link initiative. Despite these changes, Tuen Mun continues to serve as the terminus of this line.
