  • Initial Transport Assessment of Development Options
    This subject paper is intended to be a research paper delving into different views and analyses from various sources. The views and analyses as contained in this paper are intended to stimulate public discussion and input to the planning process of the "HK2030 Study" and do not necessarily represent the views of the HKSARG. WORKING PAPER NO. 35 INITIAL TRANSPORT ASSESSMENT OF DEVELOPMENT OPTIONS Purpose 1. The purpose of this paper is to provide information on the reference transport demand forecasts, assessment of Reference Scenario and framework for option evaluations. Background 2. Under Stage 3 of the HK2030 Study, Development Scenario and Development Options are formulated. The Development Options are then subject to transport, economic, financial as well as environmental assessments. Under the integrated approach adopted for the Study, the transport requirements identified for the Development Options are also assessed in terms of the environmental, economic and financial implications in order that a meaningful comparison of the Development Options could be made. 3. Under the Reference Scenario, various development choices have been considered to satisfy the land requirements. They can broadly be categorised into two different options of development patterns, namely Decentralisation and Consolidation. The details are presented in the paper on Development Options under the Reference Scenario. Assessments have been carried out to identify the transport requirements of the two Development Options in 2010, 2020 and 2030. The findings are summarised in the following sections. Development Options 4. Under the Reference Scenario, the population in 2030 could be in the region of 9.2 million which is only marginally more than the population of 8.9 million for 2016 adopted in the previous strategic planning.

  • File Ref.: MA 60/1(2002) Pt.4 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL BRIEF
    File Ref.: MA 60/1(2002) Pt.4 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL BRIEF SHIPPING AND PORT CONTROL (AMENDMENT) REGULATION 2002 INTRODUCTION At the meeting of the Executive Council on 25 June 2002, the Council ADVISED and the Chief Executive ORDERED that the A Shipping and Port Control (Amendment) Regulation 2002, at Annex A, should be made under section 80(1) of the Shipping and Port Control Ordinance to impose a designated area in the Kap Shui Mun water area and require all vessels to tender pre-arrival notification (PAN). BACKGROUND AND ARGUMENT Imposing a Special Area in the Kap Shui Mun area 2. At present, through traffic to and from the northwestern approaches of Hong Kong waters are free to be conducted in either the Kap Shui Mun Fairway or Ma Wan Fairway. Such traffic can be both southeast-bound and northwest-bound. The average navigational width of the Kap Shui Mun Fairway and Ma Wan Fairway are 210 metres and 680 metres respectively. 3. In view of the collision incidents that happened in the Kap Shui Mun area, Marine Department conducted an in-house study in the year 2000 on the traffic using the area with a view to developing measures to improve navigational safety there. The study recommends, inter alia, that a single direction traffic scheme should be introduced to the Kap Shui Mun area. Under the scheme, through traffic in the northern part of the much narrower Kap Shui Mun Fairway should be limited to southeast-bound only. The two-way bound traffic arrangement in both the southern part of the Kap Shui Mun Fairway and the entire Ma Wan Fairway can remain unchanged.

  • Chapter 2 Quality City and Quality Life
    Chapter 2 Quality City And Quality Life Preamble The development of Hong Kong into a knowledge-based economy requires talent from around the world, and a quality city life is essential to attracting talent. The concept of “Progressive Development” advocated by the Chief Executive is to develop a quality city life by striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection and conservation. In the arena of environmental protection, we launched a basket of new initiatives in areas such as air quality improvement, waste management and promoting a low-carbon economy and lifestyle. Environmental protection is a long-term and continuing commitment. The Government will continue to promote regional co-operation to improve air quality within the region, and to develop the PRD Region into a green and quality living area. Global warming is an international concern. We will meet the challenge of climate change with early planning. In particular, we will enhance energy effi ciency and promote a low carbon economy — an economy based on low energy consumption and low pollution. Moreover, we will strengthen our cultural software, develop our audience base, and support more small and medium arts groups to tie in with the development of the West Kowloon Cultural District, which is proceeding as planned. 28 Quality City And Quality Life We will also continue our efforts to beautify the shoreline of Victoria Harbour by turning it into a landmark to be enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. 29 Quality City And Quality Life New Initiatives We will: • Oversee the progressive launch of digital audio broadcasting services by three commercial licensees and Radio Television Hong Kong as from late 2011/early 2012.

Along with six-year-old Imogen and three-year-old Ethan, Cat and SAndy originally relocated to Stanley from Shanghai, where they had spent four years soaking up the city’s vibrant culture and international lifestyle. In Cat’s own words, “After a year in Stanley enjoying long-forgotten favourites in the grocery store we began to miss China and all the mind-blowing things we experienced there each day. In a smaller and quieter way, Shek O offers the same authenticity and uniqueness,” and so the family once again upped sticks and headed to their current location, an 1,800-square-foot ground-floor apartment in Shek O village.

  • For Discussion TFWL/01/2018 on 12 July 2018
    Task Force on Water-land Interface For discussion TFWL/01/2018 on 12 July 2018 An Update on the Harbour Area Treatment Scheme PURPOSE This paper provides an update of the Harbour Area Treatment Scheme (HATS) and the improvement it brings to the water quality of Victoria Harbour. BACKGROUND 2. The HATS, formerly known as the Strategic Sewage Disposal Scheme (SSDS), is the largest sewerage infrastructure project in Hong Kong. Aimed at improving the water quality of Victoria Harbour, the Scheme comprises 16 preliminary treatment works (PTWs) across the districts around Victoria Harbour, a total of 44 km length of deep sewage conveyance tunnels, the Stonecutters Island Sewage Treatment Works (SCISTW) and a submarine outfall for the discharge of treated effluent (Figure 1). The system serves over 5.7 million population, and can handle 2.45 million cubic metres of sewage per day, equivalent to the volume of 1,000 Olympic- sized swimming pools. 3. The project was implemented in two Stages. Stage 1, which serves the Kowloon, Tseung Kwan O, Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung, Chai Wan and Shau Kei Wan areas, was commissioned in December 2001. Stage 2A of the project was subsequently commissioned in December 2015, extending the areas served to cover northern and western Hong Kong Island. In between these, the disinfection system in the SCISTW was put into operation in March 2010. 4. Further details about the implementation of HATS are detailed in the paper ref. TFWL/03/2016 presented to the Task Force on 24 October 2016 at Annex 1. Task Force on Water-land Interface TFWL/01/2018 Figure 1 – The Harbour Area Treatment Scheme IMPROVEMENTS FROM HATS 5.

  • Chapter 5: Getting Around Hong Kong
    Chapter 5: Getting Around Hong Kong The Road Crossing Code It is safer to cross the road using footbridges, subways, “Zebra” crossings or “Green man” crossings. If you cannot find any such crossing facilities nearby, there are some basic steps for crossing roads that you need to observe: 1. Find a safe place where you can see clearly along the roads in all directions for any approaching traffic. 2. When checking traffic, stop a little way back from the kerb where you will be away from traffic. 3. Look all around for traffic and listen. However, electric/hybrid vehicles including motorcycles may operate very quietly. You need to look out for them in addition to listening. If traffic is coming, let it pass. Look all around and listen again. 4. Let the drivers know your intention to cross but do not expect a driver to slow down for you. 5. Do not cross unless you are certain there is plenty of time. Walk straight across the road when there is no traffic near. 6. Keep looking and listening for vehicles that come into sight or come near while you cross. 7. Do not carry out any other activities, such as eating, drinking, playing mobile games,using mobile phones, listening to any audio device or talking while crossing the road. Give all your attention to the traffic. Using crossing facilities Crossing aids are often provided to help you cross busy roads. Footbridges and subways: Footbridges, subways and elevated walkways are the safest places to cross busy roads as they keep pedestrians well away from the dangers of traffic.
