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. -

Executive Summary of Technical Report on Traffic and Transport
Civil Engineering and Development Department Agreement No. CE61/2007(CE) and Planning Department North East New Territories New Development Areas Planning and Engineering Study – Investigation Traffic and Transport Assessment Executive Summary INTRODUCTION This report provides a baseline review and a traffic and transport impact assessment of the proposed North East New Territories (NENT) New Development Areas (NDAs) Development under the Recommended Outline Development Plans (RODPs), for the existing and planned transport system. A 2-tier transport modelling approach is adopted. Strategic transport model is developed to provide quantitative input for highway capacity analysis of the major highway corridors, whereas local transport models are developed to support the local network and junction design. TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT ASSESSMENT ON THE RODPs The model runs have identified the potential overloading of the existing Fanling Highway Kwu Tung Section, the Po Shek Wu Interchange and the So Kwun Po Interchange due to the proposed NDAs Development. Various highway network improvement options to resolve the problem and minimise noise and air pollution are explored and outlined below. HIGHWAY INFRASTRUCTURES Widening of Fanling Highway Kwu Tung Section It is recommended to widen the existing Fanling Highway Kwu Tung Section between the San Tin Interchange and Po Shek Wu Interchange from the existing dual 3-lane without hard shoulder to dual 4-lane with hard shoulder, and to divert the adjacent Castle Peak Road with the associated utilities. Various widening scheme options have been reviewed and it is recommended to widen the expressway towards the northern side so that the impacts to the existing nearby historical buildings and Old and Valuable Trees (OVTs) could be minimised. -

Background 1.1 The Territorial Development Strategy Review in 1990s first identified that there was potential for strategic growth in the North East New Territories (NENT). The Planning and Development Study on NENT commissioned in 1998 identified Kwu Tung North (KTN), Fanling North (FLN) and Ping Che/Ta Kwu Ling (PC/TKL) as suitable for New Development Areas (NDAs) development. The Hong Kong 2030: Planning Vision and Strategy, promulgated in 2007, recommended to proceed with the KTN and FLN NDAs, among others, to address the long-term housing demand and provide employment opportunities. -
