Hong Kong Polytechnic University Phase 8 (香港理工大學第八期) bus stop is located outside Block Z of Phase 8 of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University on Chatham Road South in Yau Tsim Mong District, Kowloon.

The routes that set up stops here all run from Gascoigne Road East to the Cross-Harbour Tunnel on Hong Kong Island. After each route stops, it will turn to the Hong Chong Road Flyover ahead to the Cross-Harbour Tunnel Toll Plaza.

When the KMB Next Stop Announcement System Displays show this stop, because the Next Stop Announcement System Display doesn't have enough space to display the entire stop name, only "Polytechnic University Phase 8" is displayed.

The former bus station was adjacent to Kowloon-Canton Railway Ho Man Tin Livestock Station. KMB called this station "Chatham Road North Livestock Station" before May 2011. Livestock Depot), but the display screen of its Depot Reporting System was not large enough to display the entire depot name. It only displayed "Livestock Depot Chatham Road", which was later renamed "Livestock Depot". Depot). Citybus and New World First Bus in front of New Town Resource Integration respectively call this station "Gascoigne Road, Chatham Road North" (Gascoigne Road, Chatham Road N) and "KCRC Livestock Depot" (KCRC Livestock Depot or Rail Livestock Station Ho Man Tin); later the station was renamed "Livestock Depot, Chatham Road North" (Livestock Depot, Chatham Road North). In conjunction with the opening of the first phase of facilities in Block Z of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Phase 8 in 2013, KMB took the lead in changing the station name to "The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Phase 8" on February 3; however, When the KMB stop reporter announces this stop, as the space of the stop reporter lacks space for displaying the entire stop name, therefore only " Polytechnic University Phase 8" is displayed. for New World First Bus and Citybus, the station names will not be changed until March. In fact, both the on-site road signs and the official government map show that the bus stop is located at Chatham Road South, not Chatham Road North, so both SMBs are wrong.
