Few people in Mui Wo had visited Hong Kong Island and only took the kai-to to Cheung Chau several times a year to buy daily necessities.

Although there was only one flight per day and there was no dock, passengers had to transfer to the shore by barge near the center of Mui Wo Sea as the waterway was finally opened.

Until 1997, when the Lantau Link opened as well as the MTR Tung Chung line being opened to traffic in 1998 and the Tuen Mun–Chek Lap Kok Link being opened to traffic in 2020, the public can take a bus or MTR to Tung Chung station to take the bus to all parts of Lantau Island (including Mui Wo), there is no need to take the ferry to Central, so the usage of the pier had dropped drastically.
