    Smile Look for a ride from University Heights to Central

    I'll move to University Heights end this month. And just know the bad news that shuttle bus service is no longer connect to Central but Sheung Wan (Shun Tek Center). Thus would like to see whether any tenant there driver through Central and could offer a ride (paid) for me on weekday morning. I'm a girl speaking fluent Mandarin/Cantonese/English. Any kindness, PM me to [email protected]

    Actually, such kind of ride is now very famous in PRC large cities, just not sure whether HK can establish such sharing

    I really depends on where in Central you want to get to. For example, the Shun Tak Centre is only 3 or 4 minutes walk from IFC/Exchange Square.

    i didn't imagine that it's so close. I got an impression that it took 15min walk from Shun Tek Center to Chater House.

    I guess it depends how fast you walk, but yes, 10+ minutes to Chater House would be about right, hence my question as to where in Central you need to be - it's about a 10-15 minute brisk walk from one edge of Central to the other.

    Ypmap.com shows two different properties as "University Heights". But assuming you mean the one in Kotewall Road, then the #13 bus stops about 100m away on Kotewall Road (outside Alpine Court) and you can get off at Wheelock House in Central which is 50m from Chater House. Cost $4.7.
