KMB Route 5

KMB Route 5 is a bus route in Hong Kong which serves the most direct route between Tsim Sha Tsui and the Kwun Tong/Diamond Hill area. The route is operated by Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB) between Fu Shan Estate and Tsim Sha Tsui East Mody Road. The route via Tsim Sha Tsui, Ma Tau Wai, Kowloon City, and Diamond Hill.

History

This route originated from Route 3 which was launched by Kai Tak Bus Company Limited in 1920s, plying between Kowloon City to Tsim Sha Tsui (Star Ferry), and the franchise was transferred to KMB in June 11, 1933. However the service was terminated in December, 1941 due to World War II.

The service was resumed at April 21, 1946 with the route number at 5, between Tsim Sha Tsui (Star Ferry) and Hung Hom, with only spilt service on morning and evening peak hours, with several months later extended to Kowloon City and upgraded to full-day service. The terminus was then extended to Ngau Chi Wan in 1947 and relocated to Choi Hung Estate in January 24, 1965.

Due to demand of residents of Fu Shan and Diamond Hill, the terminus of Rt.5 was swapped with Rt. 203E and relocated to Fu Shan at June 22, 2008. However, due to planned relocation of Tsim Sha Tsui Star Ferry Bus Terminus, the Tsim Sha Tsui Terminus was relocated to Tsim Sha Tsui East (Mody Road) which was located at East Tsim Sha Tsui East Railway Station. This route change had triggered the general public's concern for the future of Star Ferry Bus Terminus at Tsim Sha Tsui with the pressure group Our Bus Terminal formed in the same year, with the research result of effect of relocation of Star Ferry Bus Terminus was accepted and presented in the 12th International Seminar of Forum UNESCO – University and Heritage hosted in Hanoi, Vietnam in April 5-10, 2009.
