  • 7. Noise Impact
    Expansion of Hong Kong International Airport into a Three-Runway System Environmental Impact Assessment Report 7. Noise Impact 7.1 Introduction 7.1.1.1 This section presents the assessment of potential noise impact associated with the construction and operation phases of the project, which has been conducted in accordance with Annexes 5 and 13 of EIAO-TM as well as the technical requirements stipulated in Clause 3.4.5 and section I of Appendix C of the EIA Study Brief (ESB-250/2012). 7.2 Noise Legislation, Standards and Guidelines 7.2.1 Aircraft Noise 7.2.1.1 The principal legislation for controlling aircraft noise in Hong Kong is the Civil Aviation (Aircraft Noise) Ordinance (Cap. 312) and Civil Aviation (Aircraft Noise) (Certification) Regulations. In line with the international practice in phasing out noisier aircraft, the Ordinance stipulates that all subsonic jet aircraft flying in and out of Hong Kong shall meet the noise standard specified in Chapter 3 of Annex 16 Volume I, Part II to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. The Regulations require all subsonic jet aircraft departing or landing in Hong Kong to be certified in accordance with international established procedures. 7.2.1.2 On the other hand, the EIAO provides the fundamental legislation with established noise criteria for evaluating noise impact of designated projects and these include aircraft noise. Annex 5 of the EIAO-TM published under the EIAO sets out the criteria for evaluating the noise impact of designated projects. It prescribes the appropriate noise metrics and noise planning criteria for various types of noise sources and land uses.

  • PR042/20 16 June 2020 Brand-New Journey Experience for Airport Express Enhanced Passenger Service and More Flexible Connectivity
    PR042/20 16 June 2020 Brand-New Journey Experience for Airport Express Enhanced Passenger Service and More Flexible Connectivity Airport Express (“AEL”) passengers are set for a brand-new experience as the MTR Corporation will roll out a series of service upgrades including self-service ticket machines, enhanced passenger waiting information and refurbished train seats in the third quarter of this year. Following changes in customer behaviour, the Corporation has also decided to change the mode of AEL feeder services to enhance flexibility to passengers. Customers can soon use MTR Mobile to hail taxis and enjoy fare discounts for their airport-bound trips on AEL, enabling point- to-point travel with smart mobility. Passengers will be able to use electronic payment including credit cards to purchase “AEL Single Journey ticket QR Code” at the MTR self-service ticket zone at Hong Kong International Airport, making travel to downtown areas more convenient for residents and tourists alike. While waiting for trains on the platform of Airport Express, passengers can check out the seat availability information of the approaching train on the passenger information display system and choose which position on the platform to wait for the train. Also starting from the third quarter in 2020, the Corporation will progressively refurbish the seats and carpets of AEL trains to give the railway line a new look. New seat covers featuring the blue and aquamarine AEL logos and a grey wave pattern will be paired with synthetic leather head rests which are not only sleek but also easier to clean. "Despite MTR patronage being seriously affected by the pandemic in the past few months, the Corporation remains committed to enhancing customer service.

  • Development of Tung Chung New Town in Hong Kong H. Wang, W
    Transactions on the Built Environment vol 33, © 1998 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 Development of Tung Chung New Town in Hong Kong H. Wang, W. Wong Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Horn, Kowloon, Hong Kong Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected]. hk Abstract Hong Kong's new airport at Chek Lap Kok is scheduled to open on July 6, 1998. At present, construction of all major projects is either at the last stage or in completion. Tung Chung New Town, one of the Airport Core Programme (ACP), has been initially set up for housing 216,000 people by 2006 and providing living area for servicing staff of the new airport. Based on the case study on the development of Tung Chung New Town, this paper illustrates the relationship between transport system and land use development. In the paper, referring to many survey data and research results, the development of Tung Chung New Town is shown to be essential due to the relocation of the Hong Kong Airport. On the other hand, comparing with other new towns in Hong Kong, Tung Chung New Town is provided with better transport system links that minimize the travel time and improve the comfort and accessibility to other parts of the territory. This makes Tung Chung New Town a more attractive new town for people to reside. 1 Introduction In the past twenty years, the Hong Kong International Airport at Kai Tak has commenced a series of improvement to cater for the continuous growth in passengers and cargo.

  • 17 November 2009 Legislative Council Panel on Transport
    LC Paper No. CB(1)417/09-10(01) 17 November 2009 Legislative Council Panel on Transport Subcommittee on Matters Relating to Railways Airport Railway Capacity Introduction 1. Suggestions have been made that the proposed terminus of the Express Rail Link should be located at Kam Sheung Road, rather than at West Kowloon and that an extension of the Airport Express from Tsing Yi be constructed and operated as a bifurcated service, serving both HK Airport and the alternative location for the Express Rail Link terminus. This report assesses whether the Airport Express can accommodate such a bifurcated service. Airport Railway Signalling Design 2. The Airport Railway comprises two interleaved train services, the Airport Express and the Tung Chung Line. These services share common tracks at two critical sections; the harbour crossing between Hong Kong and Kowloon stations, and the section from Tsing Yi station across the Tsing Ma and Kap Shui Mun bridges. These two sections of the alignment constrain the maximum capacity of the Airport Express and the Tung Chung Line. 3. The signalling system controls the movement of trains and is designed as a safety critical system to ensure safe separation between trains at all times. The original objective for the design of the signalling system for the Airport Railway, taking the above track configuration into account, was for a maximum signalled capacity of one Airport Express train every 4.5 minutes and one Tung Chung Line train every 2.25 minutes, equivalent to 39 trains per hour at the critical section between 1 Hong Kong and Kowloon stations, using the following service pattern (Pattern A): Tung Chung Line – to Tung Chung Airport Express – to Airport Tung Chung Line – to Tsing Yi repeat The full service was envisaged between Hong Kong and Tsing Yi and the constraint imposed by the Tsing Ma bridge (only 1 train on each track at any time) accommodated by running alternate Tung Chung Line trains from Hong Kong to Tsing Yi only.
