MR WILSON OR (in Chinese): President, in August 2012, the Government introduced the Universal Accessibility Programme ("the Programme") to retrofit barrier-free access facilities to public walkways, and expanded its scope in 2016. In October last year, the Government announced that it would commence a feasibility study in the first half of this year on proposals to retrofit lifts to the remaining some 120 walkways under the Programme. On retrofitting barrier-free access facilities to walkways, will the Government inform this Council: (1) of the (i) names, (ii) (anticipated) works commencement dates, (iii) anticipated works completion dates and (iv) anticipated commissioning dates, of those projects under the Programme at present which are underway or have yet to commence works; (2) of the (i) implementation timetable and (ii) latest progress of the aforesaid feasibility study; LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ― 27 February 2019 7177 (3) whether the Government invoked the Lands Resumption Ordinance (Cap. 124) in the past decade to resume private lands for carrying out lift retrofitting projects not under the Programme; if so, of the details; and (4) given that the Government has all along been refusing to include in the Programme those walkways which are within the areas of the Tenants Purchase Scheme estates and private housing estates on grounds that such walkways are privately owned, whether the Government will consider bearing the costs of retrofitting barrier-free access facilities to such walkways; if so, of the details; if not, the reasons for that? SECRETARY FOR TRANSPORT AND HOUSING (in Chinese): President, my reply to the various parts of the question raised by Mr Wilson OR is as follows. The Government has been installing barrier-free access facilities at public walkways (i.e. public footbridges, elevated walkways and subways maintained by the Highways Department ("HyD")) (referred to as the "Original Programme"). Currently, 95 of the 145 items under the Original Programme have been completed. HyD is undertaking construction works for 41 items (most of them are anticipated to be completed for commissioning in the next one to two years) and carrying out investigation or design work for the remaining 9 items (works schedules to be confirmed upon the completion of design work and public consultation). The relevant information is set out in Annex 1. The Government launched the Universal Accessibility ("UA") Programme in August 2012 to expand the programme to retrofit barrier-free access facilities at public walkways with a view to facilitating the access to public walkways by the public. When the Programme was announced, we invited members of the public to propose locations at public walkways where they considered lift retrofitting necessary. Response from the public was overwhelming and numerous proposals were suggested. Upon the invitation of the Government, (1) the 18 District Councils ("DCs") selected a total of 57 items for priority (1) Each DC selected three public walkways (locations) for priority implementation, viz. a total of 54 public walkways (locations).

Harbour Business Forum On-Site Liaison: Paul Zimmerman, Convener of Designing Hong Kong Harbour District Submitted by: Brian Berard Eric Rosendahl Jarrad Fallon Lucas Scotta Santiago Lora Alexander Wong Alexander Muir Becky Yang Submitted to: Project Advisor: Creighton Peet, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Andrew Klein, WPI Assistant Professor Project Co-advisor: Kent Rissmiller, WPI Professor Abstract Victoria Harbour is one of Hong Kong‟s greatest assets; however, the balance between recreational and commercial uses of the harbour favours commercial uses. 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.

  • Waterborne Transport Services in Selected Places Research Office Legislative Council Secretariat
    Information Note Waterborne transport services in Research Office selected places Legislative Council Secretariat IN11/18-19 1. Introduction 1.1 In Hong Kong, waterborne transport services, including regular passenger ferry services, regular or on-demand "kaito" ferry services and harbour tour services have been serving the commuting and recreational needs of local residents, as well as the tourist demand. For regular passenger ferry services, the in-harbour ferry services serve as a supplementary transport mode to land-based harbour-crossing services while outlying island ferry services are essential transport services connecting the outlying islands with other parts of Hong Kong. Nonetheless, there have been views in the community that the Government should explore the provision of more in-harbour ferry routes and other service models (such as water bus or water taxi service) to supplement the already congested land-based transportation networks, as well as connecting major tourist attractions along the harbourfront. 1.2 In the past decade, London of the United Kingdom ("UK") and New York City ("NYC") of the United States have revived the waterborne transport services as part of their strategy to enhance the vibrancy of the waterfront/waterways and promote its usage for transportation purposes. Both places have developed and implemented a policy to promote the development and usage of waterborne transport services, leading to enhancement/expansion of the service network and increase in ridership. 1.3 At the request of Hon Jeremy TAM Man-ho, the Research Office has prepared this information note aiming to examine (a) the policy on the development of waterborne transport services for local commuters in selected places; (b) their service and operation features, connection with other transport systems and passengers' usage patterns, and (c) their implementation experiences, as well as the latest development.
