  • Nvironmental 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 - priority for efficient and environment friendly transport modes; reduction in traffic congestion and better inter-modal co-ordination; greater emphasis on pedestrian facilities; and application of Information Technology (IT) to transport management. Priority for Efficient and Environment Friendly Transport Modes Railways are environment friendly, safe and efficient mass carriers in Hong Kong, carrying about 40% of our public transport passengers. At present, the total length of our railways under operation is about 219 km. We are taking forward the following five railway projects in full swing - West Island Line; South Island Line (East); Kwun Tong Line Extension; Shatin to Central Link; and Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link. 7 Upon completion of these railway passenger lines by 2020, the total length of railways in operation in Hong Kong will be increased to about 280 km. We launched the consultancy study on the Review and Update of the Railway Development Strategy 2000 in March 2011 to further our policy for better use of railways as the backbone of the passenger transport system. Development of rail transport will significantly speed up passenger flow, alleviate road traffic congestion and reduce vehicle-induced air pollution. The study is expected to be completed in 2013. The Government will continue with its efforts to enhance the co-ordination between railway and other public transport modes to avoid unnecessary duplication of public transport resources and alleviate traffic congestion.

  • The Rise of Qianhai, China
    RESEA R CH TECHNICAL PAPER November 2014 THE RISE OF QIANHAI, CHINA: AN OPPORTUNITY OR A CHALLENGE? EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is no doubt China has the world’s fastest-growing economy and its currency (RMB) has grown significantly over the past years in terms of the volume utilised for trade settlement, finance and investment. According to the latest survey compiled by the Society of Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT), a global provider of secure financial messaging services, RMB payments worldwide have almost tripled in value over the past two years. As of September 2014, the RMB was ranked seventh in the top 20 global payments currencies. Looking forward, due to the increasing usage in Hong Kong, China and other offshore centers, it is predicted to be mature enough to become a reserve currency within the next five years. In order to cater for expanding settlement volumes, and support the future development of new products and services denominated in RMB, Qianhai in Shenzhen will play a unique role in fostering RMB internationalisation by accelerating the circulation of RMB funds across the border. In an effort to explore the opportunities and challenges Qianhai poses, Colliers will comment on the positioning of Qianhai in relation to Hong Kong and other factors, such as the Shanghai Free-Trade Zone (SHFTZ), and the latest development policies, such as the newly announced 15% corporate tax and its subject beneficiaries. Competition is inevitable but characterised by the Central Government supported incentives and policies, Colliers believe the position of Qianhai as a “special zone”, will provide more opportunities rather than challenges in and beyond the Pearl River Delta region.

Background 2. SCL, with a total length of 17 kilometres, consists of the following two sections – (a) Tai Wai to Hung Hom section: this is an extension of the Ma On Shan Line from Tai Wai via Southeast Kowloon to Hung Hom where it will join the West Rail Line; and (b) Hung Hom to Admiralty section: this is an extension of the East Rail Line from Hung Hom across the Victoria Harbour to Wan Chai North and Admiralty. 3. SCL will have ten stations. Apart from bringing improvements to the existing Tai Wai Station, the SCL project will involve construction of new stations or extension of existing stations at Hin Keng, Diamond Hill, Kai Tak, To Kwa Wan, Ma Tau Wai, Ho Man Tin, Hung Hom, the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, and Admiralty. It is a territory-wide strategic railway project (alignment layout at Annex 1). Admiralty Station and Ho Man Tin Station will become integrated stations providing interchange service to passengers of SCL and South Island Line (East)(“SIL(E)”), as well as passengers of SCL and Kwun Tong Line Extension (“KTE”) respectively. 4. The Approved Project Estimate for the entire SCL project is $79,800 million (in money-of-the-day prices) and the project is funded by the Government under the “concession approach”.

  • Application of the Analytic Hierarchy Approach to the Risk Assessment of Zika Virus Disease Transmission in Guangdong Province
    Li et al. BMC Infectious Diseases (2017) 17:65 DOI 10.1186/s12879-016-2170-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Application of the analytic hierarchy approach to the risk assessment of Zika virus disease transmission in Guangdong Province, China Xing Li1†, Tao Liu1†, Lifeng Lin2, Tie Song2, Xiaolong Du1, Hualiang Lin1, Jianpeng Xiao1, Jianfeng He2, Liping Liu2, Guanghu Zhu1, Weilin Zeng1, Lingchuan Guo1, Zheng Cao3, Wenjun Ma3* and Yonghui Zhang2* Abstract Background: An international spread of Zika virus (ZIKV) infection has attracted global attention in 2015. The infection also affected Guangdong province, which is located in southern China. Multiple factors, including frequent communication with South America and Southeast Asia, suitable climate (sub-tropical) for the habitat of Aedes species, may increase the risk of ZIKV disease transmission in this region. Methods: An analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method was used to develop a semi-quantitative ZIKV risk assessment model. After selecting indicators, we invited experts in related professions to identify the index weight and based on that a hierarchical structure was generated. Then a series of pairwise comparisons were used to determine the relative importance of the criteria. Finally, the optimal model was established to estimate the spatial and seasonal transmission risk of ZIKV. Results: A total of 15 factors that potentially influenced the risk of ZIKV transmission were identified. The factor that received the largest weight was epidemic of ZIKV in Guangdong province (combined weight [CW] =0.37), followed by the mosquito density (CW = 0.18) and the epidemic of DENV in Guangdong province (CW = 0.14). The distribution of 123 districts/counties’ RIs of ZIKV in Guangdong through different seasons were presented, respectively.

Received: 11 October 2019; Accepted: 23 December 2019; Published: 25 December 2019 Abstract: Traffic congestion, especially during peak hours, has become a challenge for transportation systems in many metropolitan areas, and such congestion causes delays and negative effects for passengers. Many studies have examined the prediction of congestion; however, these studies focus mainly on road traffic, and subway transit, which is the main form of transportation in densely populated cities, such as Tokyo, Paris, and Beijing and Shenzhen in China, has seldom been examined. This study takes Shenzhen as a case study for predicting congestion in a subway system during peak hours and proposes a hybrid method that combines a static traffic assignment model with an agent-based dynamic traffic simulation model to estimate recurrent congestion in this subway system.
