The findings and recommendations do not necessarily represent the views of the HKSARG. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. INTRODUCTION 2. INFLUENCING FACTORS AND KEY ISSUES 3. ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AND KEY ISSUES 4. POTENTIAL SOLUTIONS REFERENCES ABBREVIATIONS 1 1. Introduction 1.1 Background 1.1.1 The HK2030: Planning Vision and Strategy (Main Study) is a strategic planning study tasked with preparing a strategic land use planning framework for Hong Kong for a period of 30 years. It will address ‘how much, what type and where land for development should be provided’. 1.1.2 The Government is committed to supporting and promoting sustainable development and to this end major policy and strategy initiatives must undergo a sustainability assessment. Under the overall goal of adhering to the principle of sustainable development, a planning objective of the HK2030 Study is to provide a good quality living environment. To achieve this, we need to strike a balance in the demand for, and supply of, environmental resources and a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is being undertaken as an integral part of the HK2030 Study. 1.1.3 To put the SEA into context, it is important to note that the Main Study involves four key stages of work viz: Stage 1: Agenda Setting, Baseline Review and Identification of Key Issues Stage 2: Examination of Key Issues Stage 3: Formulation and Evaluation of Scenarios and Options Stage 4: Formulation of Development Strategies and Response Plans 1.1.4 The SEA is being integrated with the Main Study by providing environmental input at all stages.

  • A Research of Lived Experience on Commuting by Bus in Hong Kong
    A research of lived experience on commuting by bus in Hong Kong Lau Wai In, Debbie 1. Hong Kong and Transportation The people’s daily commute in Hong Kong mostly only takes half an hour to one hour. More than half of the Hong Kong people rely on public transportation for their trips on weekdays (Transport Department, 2011). According to the Transport Department, only around 14 percent of the households had private cars available for their uses. Public transportation shares a big part of daily life for most local people, ranging from children to the elderly. It connects every district of Hong Kong, making the local trips much more convenient. Apart from the heavy reliance on commuting, there is even a particular group of people who share their mania over public transport. In Hong Kong, there are terms called “bus plastic” (baa1 gaau1) and “train plastic” (tit3 gaau1), which commonly describe people who have an unusual and extreme interest in bus and MTR. It raises several questions in my mind. Why do Hong Kong people insist to take public transport in their everyday life? What does public transport mean to Hong Kong people? Are they just a machine or something far more complicated? Conventionally, passengers taking public transportation are seen as a passive subject comparing with walking and cycling, as there are fewer motions while being carried by the vehicles and lack of willingness to pursue their purposes (Scheldeman, 2011, p.129). This kind of perspective is rather applicable to me since I seldom enjoy my trips on public transport.

  • Public Transit As a Tourist Attraction: Hong Kong
    PUBLIC TRANSIT AS A TOURIST ATTRACTION: HONG KONG Jakob Lazzaro HIST 3076 – Dr. John Carroll 17 December 2018 4276 Words LAZZARO 2 Like many major cities, Hong Kong has an expansive public transportation system. Made up of a patchwork of companies connected only by the mighty Octopus card, this intermodal network literally keeps the city functioning thanks to its ability to move millions of people quickly and efficiently every single day. For visitors, Hong Kong’s public transportation is both a means of getting from point A to point B and a tourist attraction. It’s a part of the unique cityscape, interwoven with the intoxicating urban fabric of towering skyscrapers looming over streets squeezed on the edges of islands between mountain peaks and lapping waves. But that doesn’t mean all public transportation is equal under the tourist gaze. Historic conveyances such as the Star Ferry, Hong Kong Tramways and the Peak Tram are praised as a way of experiencing the ‘authentic’ old Hong Kong while the MTR, Light Rail, outlying island ferries, double-decker buses, and minibuses are only discussed in a practical sense. Despite carrying the majority of the city’s commuters and thus being the most demonstrably ‘authentic’ representation of modern Hong Kong, the bulk of the city’s public transportation is portrayed having little intrinsic tourist value. But this three-pronged portrayal of public transportation in tourist-oriented media highlights the farce of the continual tug-of-war over authenticity between ‘travelers’ and ‘tourists.’ Although one group is ostensibly more ‘authentic’ than the other, both present a similar perspective on Hong Kong’s public transportation in their categorizations of what is a standalone tourist attraction versus a mere way of travelling to the things worth seeing.1 The largest continuity between the supposedly different ‘travelers’ and ‘tourists’ is their never-ending search for the ‘authentic’ Old Hong Kong, and the Star Ferry gladly delivers.

  • 5P Wong Chun to My Opinion of Transport in Hong Kong I Like
    5P Wong Chun To My Opinion of Transport in Hong Kong I like travelling by minibus in Hong Kong but I do not like the MTR. The minibuses are my favourite type of transport. Travelling by minibus is comfortable. The seats in minibuses are soft. They are equipped with air-conditioning. The passengers are also quiet. It is not crowded to travel by minibus. We can always get a seat and the trip is relaxing. Travelling by minibus is fast too. It takes less than forty-five minutes from Kwun Tong to Chai Wan. It takes more than an hour going the same route by bus! I hate travelling by MTR for several reasons. Although travelling by MTR is fast, it is uncomfortable. The seats in the MTR are hard. The passengers are also very noisy. The trip is boring because I can’t see any view. Travelling by MTR is inconvenient too. The station is far from my home and I often have to change MTR lines. Sometimes I have to stand for a long time because the MTR is very crowded. The queue is long too. I hate travelling by MTR. The trip is stressful and unpleasant! I really hate travelling by MTR! I think the MTR is the worst transport in Hong Kong, and minibuses are the best! 5P Ip Sik Kuen My Opinion of Transport in Hong Kong There are many kinds of transport in Hong Kong, for example, bus, taxi, MTR…… I like travelling by taxi but I don’t like travelling by MTR. Taxis are my favourite type of transport.
