Citybus Route 2A is a daytime bus route on Hong Kong Island, running between Yiu Tung Estate and Exhibition Centre station. It provides frequent assembly line services to passengers along King's Road, which also creates the problem of off-duty services..^[1]

This line also has Route 2R, which runs from St. Paul's Hospital to Yiu Tung Estate in one direction, passing through Taikoo Shing and Sai Wan Ho. The route only provides services after designated large-scale events are held at the Hong Kong Stadium. It is mainly used to facilitate fans to return to the Eastern District by express route after watching football games without having to walk to Causeway Road to catch a bus.

History[edit]

May 2, 1994: The route enters service.
April 9, 1996: The route detoured through a section of Yiu Hing Road in Hing Tung Estate.
August 23, 1996: Additional air-conditioned buses were added to the route.
September 1, 1998: The China Motor Bus franchise ended and the route was changed to operated by New World First Bus.
2000: Route changed to fully air-conditioned service.
May 17, 2015: The Hong Kong Island terminus of this line was moved from Wan Chai Pier to Wan Chai North Temporary Public Transport Interchange to cope with the closure of Exhibition Centre Station Public Transport Interchange due to the MTR Sha Tin to Central Link project.^[2]
October 22, 2017: In conjunction with the "Prayer and Mobilization Rally(祈禱暨動員大會)" and "Scout Parade 2017(童軍大會操2017)" held at the Hong Kong Stadium, the 2R line provided services for the first time.^[3]
November 4 and 14, 2017: In conjunction with the two major events of "2017-18 Hong Kong Premier League: Hong Kong Pegasus vs. Standard Rovers" and "2019 Asian Cup Qualifying Round: Hong Kong vs. Lebanon", a vehicle was once again sent to drive the 2R line.
November 30 to December 3, 2017: In conjunction with the large-scale event of the "Hong Kong Gospel Festival 2017", buses will be dispatched to run Route 2R.

May 14, 2022: The Wan Chai District terminus of Line 2A will be moved back to the Convention and Exhibition Centre Station Public Transport Interchange to coordinate with the opening of the Convention and Exhibition Station.
