  • T and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong
    Measurement and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong By: Michael Audi, Kathryn Byorkman, Alison Couture, Suzanne Najem ZRH006 Measurement and Analysis of Walkability in Hong Kong An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the faculty of the Worcester Polytechnic Institute In partial fulfillment of the requirements for Degree of Bachelor of Science In cooperation with Designing Kong Hong, Ltd. and The Harbour Business Forum On March 4, 2010 Submitted by: Submitted to: Michael Audi Paul Zimmerman Kathryn Byorkman Margaret Brooke Alison Couture Dr. Sujata Govada Suzanne Najem Roger Nissim Professor Robert Kinicki Professor Zhikun Hou ii | P a g e Abstract Though Hong Kong’s Victoria Harbour is world-renowned, the harbor front districts are far from walkable. The WPI team surveyed 16 waterfront districts, four in-depth, assessing their walkability using a tool created by the research team and conducted preference surveys to understand the perceptions of Hong Kong pedestrians. Because pedestrians value the shortest, safest, least-crowded, and easiest to navigate routes, this study found that confusing routes, unsafe or indirect connections, and a lack of amenities detract from the walkability in Hong Kong. This report provides new data concerning the walkability in harbor front districts and a tool to measure it, along with recommendations for potential improvements. iii | P a g e 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 sponsors Paul Zimmerman, Dr. Sujata Govada, Margaret Brooke, and Roger Nissim for their help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.

  • Citybus and NWFB to Enhance 15 Hong Kong Island Routes
    Citybus and NWFB to Enhance 15 Hong Kong Island Routes （27 May 2004, Hong Kong）Citybus and New World First Bus (NWFB) will implement a major service enhancement plan for 15 Hong Kong Island routes next Monday (31 May). Several Bus-Bus Interchange (BBI) schemes for both Citybus and NWFB routes will be introduced. The key points of the service enhancement plan are as follow: y Citybus Route 5P, a morning express service running from Kennedy Town to Wan Chai, will continue to operate from 31 May onwards. y Introduce a morning express service, called Citybus Route 780P, which runs from Chai Wan (Hing Wah Estate) to Central Ferry Piers. y Citybus Route 789 will operate on an all-day basis, and with the terminus relocated to Admiralty’s Rodney Street. Siu Sai Wan-bound services on Route 789 will be rerouted to run via Hennessy Road, Fleming Road, Wanchai Road and Canal Road West. It will no longer run via Gloucester Road and Wan Chai Ferry Pier. y NWFB will provide an all-day service on Route 18P, running between Kennedy Town (Belcher Bay) and North Point Ferry Pier. y The terminus for Citybus Route 8X will be relocated from Admiralty (Rodney Street) to Happy Valley (Lower). Passengers on Route 8X can interchange to and from NWFB Route 23 for connection to the Mid-Levels or the Eastern District. Passengers using the same Octopus card can enjoy a BBI fare concession up to $4.50 on the second leg of the journey. y Route 1 and 5A will merge, and run between Kennedy Town (Belcher Bay) and Page 1 of 5 Happy Valley (Upper).

  • Promoting Universal Accessibility of the East Kowloon Harbor Front
    Promoting Universal Accessibility of the East Kowloon Harbor Front Zachary Harmony Meagan Hiatt Paige Waechter Chuankai Zhou 44-SS7-C154 Promoting Universal Accessibility of the East Kowloon Harbor Front An Interactive Qualifying Project Report submitted to the faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science Submitted by: Zachary Harmony Meagan Hiatt Paige Waechter Chuankai Zhou Submitted to: Professor Hendrik Tieben, School of Architecture Chinese University of Hong Kong Dr. Sujata Govada, School of Architecture Chinese University of Hong Kong and Urban Design and Planning International Project Advisors: Professor Creighton Peet, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Professor Stephan Sturm, Worcester Polytechnic Institute Date: March 6, 2015 ii Abstract The pedestrian scheme that emerged from the former industrial district of Kwun Tong, Hong Kong developed without the consideration of pedestrian universal accessibility. Our goal was to propose a universally accessible pedestrian model to reach the East Kowloon harbor front. Through surveys and exploration of pedestrian pathways, we found inconsistencies in the degree of accessibility, stemming from the lack of Hong Kong accessibility standards. Our recommendations include implementing a wheelchair ramp slope standard, uniformly wide sidewalks, and more prevalent signage. iii Acknowledgements We would like to thank the following individuals, organizations and institutions for supporting us throughout the completion of this project: The School of Architecture, Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) for sponsoring our project, and for providing work accommodations and valuable resources. Our sponsors, Professor Hendrik Tieben from CUHK and Dr. Sujata Govada with Urban Design and Planning International, for all their invaluable resources, insight and guidance throughout this project.

  • (“EOI”) for Operating the Rehabus Feeder Services
    Invitation for Expression of Interest (“EOI”) for Operating the Rehabus Feeder Services In 2018, the Transport Department of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government (“TD”) invited interested parties (Proponents) to operate the Rehabus Feeder Services with effect from 1 June 2019 for a time period of three years. After years of operation, it is proven that to engage another Rehabus operator to provide Rehabus service can improve the operational efficiency in general. As the service period of the existing Rehabus operator will soon be expired, TD invites Proponents to operate the Rehabus Feeder Services and it is expected that the operator will start to commence the services from 1 June 2022 for a period of 5 years. TD may extend the operating period of the Rehabus Feeder Services for a further period or periods not exceeding 5 years at any one time, so that the operating period granted together with all extensions thereof shall not in any case exceed a period of 10 years in aggregate. A. Feeder Routes1 Hong Kong Island 1. Queen Mary Hospital route 2. Eastern Hospital route 3. Southern District route (Fridays (Public Holidays), Saturdays and Sundays) Kowloon 4.
