I refer to Philip Li Chun Yu's letter 'Residents sick of long trek' (South China Morning Post, November 30) expressing concern about the provision of bus services for residents of Palm Springs, Royal Palms and Fairview Park in Yuen Long.

At present there are 10 resident services taking passengers from the above residential developments to various destinations, including a route 92R which provides bus services between Fairview Park and Tsuen Wan during peak hours. The public may also take KMB route 76K to Yuen Long and interchange with route 68M for Tsuen Wan.

In view of the relatively comprehensive resident service network, we have no plan to introduce new franchised bus routes. However, we will closely monitor the passenger demand in the area and appropriate measures will be taken when the situation warrants.
