Our report, prepared for Designing Hong Kong Ltd., examines this imbalance from the marine perspective. We audited the 50km of waterfront twice and conducted interviews with major stakeholders to assess necessary improvements to land/water interfaces and to provide recommendations on improvements to the land/water interfaces with the goal of making Victoria Harbour a truly “living” harbour. ii 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 sponsor, Paul Zimmerman, for his help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.

  • Bridges, Tunnels, and Ferries: Connectivity, Transport, and the Future of Hong Kong’S Outlying Islands
    Island Studies Journal, 12(2), 2017, pp. 61-82 Bridges, tunnels, and ferries: connectivity, transport, and the future of Hong Kong’s outlying islands Abraham Leung Griffith University, Australia [email protected] Michael Tanko KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden [email protected] Matthew Burke Griffith University, Australia [email protected] and C.S. Shui University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong [email protected] ABSTRACT: Hong Kong has numerous outlying islands that are relatively underdeveloped due to isolation from the urban core and are dependent on ferries. Concurrently, the Hong Kong Government has expressed a desire for outlying islands to be places for urban expansion and has proposed building more bridges, tunnels, and reclaimed land. Development of these fixed links may transform the outlying island communities’ current ways of life. Ferry operators struggle to maintain efficient operation, fleet investments, improved services, and attract passengers while competing with fixed link transport modes. Urban ferry transport has been resurgent in parts of Europe, North America, and Australia, but not Hong Kong. This paper identifies a new typology of island communities according to connectivity based on available transport links. Using census and ferry statistics, the socioeconomic development of island communities is analysed. The transport problems faced by outlying islands are further conceptualised, and possible scenarios for socially sustainable island futures are proposed. Keywords: connectivity, ferry services, fixed links, islands, Hong Kong, transport https://doi.org/10.24043/isj.24 © 2017 – Institute of Island Studies, University of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Introduction Before the development of railways and automobiles, ferry transport was the most efficient form of passenger and freight transport in coastal and river cities.
