Jockey Club station (Chinese: 馬會站; Portuguese: Estação Jockey Clube) is a station on Taipa line of the Macau Light Rapid Transit, located within two-minute walking distance of Macau Jockey Club.

History

[edit]

Jockey Club station was originally named "賽馬會站" in Chinese, and was planned to be around 100 metres west of the present location, until the proposal was updated in 2009.[1] Building work of this and other three stations in Taipa began in 2012,[2] and later that year Estrada Gov. A. Oliveria Public Transport Interchange also started construction. Jocky Club station work was completed in 2016,[3] but the opening was delayed due to ongoing work at Taipa line train depot.

The station opened on 10 December 2019 along with the Taipa line,[4] and the nearby public transport interchange opened 18 days later.[5]
