  • 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.

    2020 Book News Welcome to our 2020 Book News. It’s hard to believe another year has gone by already and what a challenging year it’s been on many fronts. We finally got the Hallmark book launched at Showbus. The Red & White volume is now out on final proof and we hope to have copies available in time for Santa to drop under your tree this Christmas. Sorry this has taken so long but there have been many hurdles to overcome and it’s been a much bigger project than we had anticipated. Several other long term projects that have been stuck behind Red & White are now close to release and you’ll see details of these on the next couple of pages. Whilst mentioning bigger projects and hurdles to overcome, thank you to everyone who has supported my latest charity fund raiser in aid of the Christie Hospital. The Walk for Life challenge saw me trekking across Greater Manchester to 11 cricket grounds, covering over 160 miles in all weathers, and has so far raised almost £6,000 for the Christie. You can read more about this by clicking on the Christie logo on the website or visiting my Just Giving page www.justgiving.com/fundraising/mark-senior-sue-at-60 Please note our new FREEPOST address is shown below, it’s just: FREEPOST MDS BOOK SALES You don’t need to add anything else, there’s no need for a street name or post code.

  • Interim Report
    The University of Hong Kong Faculty of Engineering Department of Computer Science COMP4801 Final Year Project 2018/19 Interim Report Topic: Utilising Smartphone Application Data Student: Wong San Yu (3035273022) Supervisor: Dr T.W. Chim Submission Date: 20th January, 2019 Utilising Smartphone Application Data Progress Report 2 Abstract Waiting for buses have become easier with bus companies introducing their own smartphone applications (apps) for passengers to check when do the buses arrive. However, apps from different companies do not read each other’s data so that passengers have to open two or more apps for checking bus arrival times. That could lead to undesired results such as missing a bus when opening another app to check arrival time. This paper describes the early research stage of a tool that integrates bus arrival time data from different bus companies. The goal of the tool is to retrieve arrival time data from different servers and show them to user in an all-in-one manner. In the current stage, it is now possible to retrieve data from Kowloon Motor Bus (KMB)’s server without using the company’s app, by directly communicating with the server using APIs. The logic of retrieving ETA from New World First Bus and Citybus is also found. Next step is to discover a working method to directly retrieve NWFB/Citybus’s bus arrival times. In the future, this tool might grow into an app which gathers all available public transport arrival time data such that it can make users’ life easier. 2 Utilising Smartphone Application Data Progress Report 2 Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................
