The main purposes of this update reports are to: • draw up a Construction and Demolition Material Management Plan (C&DMMP) at an early design stage to minimize C&D material generation and encourage proper management of such material. • vetting of the C&DMMP prior to upgrading of the project to Category A in the Public Works Programme; • provide the future contractor with information from the C&DMMP in order to facilitate him in the preparation of the Waste Management Plan (WMP) and to minimize C&D material generation during construction. • enable classification and estimation the quantities of C&D materials generated and their time of generation and disposal method; • recommend ways to minimise the generation and to maximise the benefical reuse of inert C&D materials; • investigate the arrangement for the delivery of excavated C&D materials and review possible barging point. • enable the Vetting Committee to scrutinize and endorse the C&DMMP and monitoring of its implementation; • provide the information for management of C&D materials in the EIA report for this “Designated Project” under the EIA Ordinance. 2.1.2 As required by the Chapter 4 section 4.1.3 of PAH, a C&DMMP at the feasibility study or preliminary design stage for each project which generates more than 50,000m 3 of C&D material including rock or that requiring imported fill in excess of 50,000m 3 shall be prepared. The CKR project would fall within this category. 2.1.3 The objective of this C&DMMP is to present the estimation of C&D materials. Another objective is to ensure that options are considered in 217722-REP-023-01 | Issue 4 | August 2012 217722-REP-023-01 REV 4.RTF Page 3 Highways Department Agreement No. CE 43/2010 (HY) Central Kowloon Route - Design and Construction Updated Construction and Demolition Material Management Plan the planning and design of the development in order to reduce the generation of C&D material and encourage the reuse of the C&D material generated. The C&DMMP also provides basis for the monitoring and management of the C&D material and imported material throughout the construction period of the Project. The main principle for the management and planning of C&D material includes: • reduce the generation of C&D materials at source; • maximise the reuse of C&D materials; and • maximise the recycling of C&D materials. 2.1.4 This C&DMMP covers the sections of the CKR as shown in Figures CKR/F/01/0001 in Appendix A.

  • T and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong
    Measurement and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong By: Michael Audi, Kathryn Byorkman, Alison Couture, Suzanne Najem ZRH006 Measurement and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the faculty of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute In partial fulfillment of the requirements for Degree of Bachelor of Science In cooperation with Designing Kong Hong, Ltd. and The Harbour Business Forum On March 4, 2010 Submitted by: Submitted to: Michael Audi Paul Zimmerman Kathryn Byorkman Margaret Brooke Alison Couture Dr. Sujata Govada Suzanne Najem Roger Nissim Professor Robert Kinicki Professor Zhikun Hou ii | P a g e Abstract Though Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour is world-renowned, the harbor front districts are far from walkable. The WPI team surveyed 16 waterfront districts, four in-depth, assessing their walkability using a tool created by the research team and conducted preference surveys to understand the perceptions of Hong Kong pedestrians. Because pedestrians value the shortest, safest, least-crowded, and easiest to navigate routes, this study found that confusing routes, unsafe or indirect connections, and a lack of amenities detract from the walkability in Hong Kong. This report provides new data concerning the walkability in harbor front districts and a tool to measure it, along with recommendations for potential improvements. iii | P a g e Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank the many people that helped us over the course of this project. First, we would like to thank our sponsors Paul Zimmerman, Dr. Sujata Govada, Margaret Brooke, and Roger Nissim for their help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.
