Older generations of Hong Kong people may still remember the reliance on ferry to get to Mui Wo, Tung Chung, Sha Lo Wan and Tai O before the completion of bridges and expressways to the Chek Lap Kok Airport. Mui Wo was the then main gateway to Lantau, busy and crowded during holidays. Places in south Lantau, including Pui O, Cheung Sha and Tong Fuk, were also popular attractions, and the Po Lin Monastery in Ngong Ping always attracted a huge crowd. The selection of Chek Lap Kok as the site for the airport was an epoch-making decision, and the subsequent implementation of the Airport Core Programme in north Lantau in the early 1990s was a watershed in the evolution of Lantau.

  • (Translation) Islands District Council Traffic and Transport Committee
    (Translation) Islands District Council Traffic and Transport Committee Paper T&TC 39/2020 Question on traffic and transport planning in North Lantau Ms Amy YUNG notified this Council that she would raise the following enquiry at the Traffic and Transport Committee meeting to be held on 20 July 2020: “ The Transport and Housing Bureau (THB) submitted papers to the Legislative Council indicating that the works of MTR Tung Chung Extension would commence in 2023 and the planned Tung Chung West Station and Tung Chung East Station would be completed in 2029. At present, residents of many housing estates in Tung Chung such as Ying Tung Estate and Yat Tung Estate have to take a half-hour bus trip to MTR Tung Chung Station. In the next 10 years, with an increase of population in Tung Chung and the Tung Chung Extension not yet available, there would be a strong demand for other complementary transport services. As such, I would like THB, the Transport Department (TD) and the Highways Department (HyD) to arrange representatives to attend the meeting and respond to the following: 1. Would THB co-ordinate with MTR Corporation Limited for increasing the length and frequency of trains operating on the Tung Chung line or co-ordinate with New World First Bus Services Limited and Citybus Limited for increasing the frequency of buses plying between Tung Chung housing estates and Tung Chung Station? 2. Would TD invite ferry operators for operating ferry routes plying between Tung Chung and the urban areas by way of franchising instead of licensing? 3.

  • Environmental Management and Performance
    ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND PERFORMANCE LAND AND WATERBORNE TRANSPORT Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated cities in the world. A safe, efficient, reliable and environment friendly transport system is important to the sustainable development of the city. On environmental management, we will continue to press ahead with the following initiatives - promotion of environment friendly transport modes; reduction in traffic congestion and better inter-modal co-ordination; promotion of non-mechanised transport mode; and application of Information Technology (IT) in traffic management. Priority for Efficient and Environment Friendly Transport Modes Railways are the backbone of our public transport system. They are environment friendly, safe and efficient mass carriers in Hong Kong, carrying about 40% of our public transport passengers. The total length of our railways under operation is about 231 kilometres (km) (about 675 km of total track length). We are taking forward the following two railway projects in full swing - Shatin to Central Link; and Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link. Upon completion of these railway passenger lines, the total length of railways in operation in Hong Kong will be increased to 270 km. The Government announced the Railway Development Strategy 2014 (RDS-2014) on 17 September 2014. Having regard to transport demand, cost effectiveness and the development needs of New Development Areas and other new development projects, RDS-2014 recommends that seven new railway projects be completed in the planning horizon up to 2031, including Northern Link (and Kwu Tung Station); Tuen Mun South Extension; East Kowloon Line; Tung Chung West Extension; Hung Shui Kiu Station; South Island Line (West) and North Island Line.
