Section 1 Introduction Section 1 Introduction SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION Section 1 Introduction 1.1 Purpose 1.1.1 This report on public consultation undertaken for the Planning Framework of Area Improvement Plan for Tsim Sha Tsui covers the following topics: Section 1: Background of the Area Improvement Study for Tsim Sha Tsui (the Study) and the activities undertaken in the consultation period; Section 2: Overview of the key comments received in the consultation exercise and our responses; and Section 3: The proposed way forward after the consultation. 1.2 Background 1.2.1 Tsim Sha Tsui (TST) is a popular shopping and tourist area, with high pedestrian flows in some of its main pedestrian corridors. Being a typical example of old urban area which was developed decades ago, TST indeed requires improvement to its environment. Within and around TST, various tourism projects or development proposals are just completed, being implemented or being planned contributing to the attractiveness of the area. It is about time to examine how to integrate these new initiatives with the existing attractions so as to enhance the attractiveness of TST. 1.2.2 With the common objective of bringing about co-ordinated improvements to the urban and pedestrian environment in the overall area of TST, the Planning Department and the Transport Department jointly commissioned the Study to formulate a comprehensive plan for improvements to pedestrian environment, urban design, streetscape and landscape of the area. 1 Section 1 Introduction 1.3 Planning Framework 1.3.1 The Study has proposed a Planning Framework which sets out preliminary ideas to address key issues of the area. To bring early improvements to the area, the Study has also recommended three Priority Projects, which form part of the Planning Framework, for early implementation. 佐敦 道 Jordan Roa d Street 寶靈街Bowring 彌敦道 d 柯士甸道 Austin Roa Nathan Road 科學館道 未來西九龍文娛藝術區 天文臺道 漆咸道南 Future West Kowloon Cultural District 康莊 O bservatory Roa Science Museum Road道 oad H ong Chong Road d 加連威老道 九龍公園 Ca d Granville R 加拿分道 Kowloon Park rnarvon Ro 道 Granville Roa 中港城 加連威老 China HK City Kowloon Park Drive d 百週年紀念花園 d ad Centenary Garden 九龍公園 Cameron Roa Roa 金馬倫道 (美化工程進行中) (Improvement in Progress) .

  • When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
    Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco.

  • Administration's Paper on "Measure to Address Noise Impact of Existing
    For discussion on 15 December 2000 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL Panels of Environmental Affairs and Transport Measures to Address Noise Impact of Existing Roads INTRODUCTION This paper supplements the Legislative Council brief issued to Members on 18 November 2000 concerning a new policy to address the noise impact of existing roads on nearby residents. A copy of the brief is at Enclosure 1. THE NEW POLICY 2. The new policy to address the noise impact of existing roads on residents in the neighbourhood is as follow - (a) engineering solutions, by way of retrofitting of barriers and enclosures, and resurfacing with low noise material, should be implemented where practicable at existing excessively noisy roads in accordance with the guiding principles set out in paragraphs 7 and 13 of the Legislative Council brief; and (b) Non-engineering solutions, such as traffic management measures, should be explored on a case-by-case basis and implemented where practicable at roads where engineering solutions are impracticable or where engineering solutions alone are inadequate in reducing the noise to an acceptable level. PAGE 2 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Roads exceeding noise limit 3. According to the assessment of the Environmental Protection Department (EPD), 655 out of 3,000 existing roads in Hong Kong are currently generating noise in excess of the noise limit for new roads of 70dB(A). This does not mean, however, all flats near these 655 roads are exposed to high noise levels. This is because the degree of noise impact would depend on factors including height and location of the flats and any structure that screens the line-of-sight to the road.
