Development of Tung Chung New Town in Hong Kong H. Wang, W
Transactions on the Built Environment vol 33, © 1998 WIT Press, www.witpress.com, ISSN 1743-3509 Development of Tung Chung New Town in Hong Kong H. Wang, W. Wong Department of Civil and Structural Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hung Horn, Kowloon, Hong Kong Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected]. hk Abstract Hong Kong's new airport at Chek Lap Kok is scheduled to open on July 6, 1998. At present, construction of all major projects is either at the last stage or in completion. Tung Chung New Town, one of the Airport Core Programme (ACP), has been initially set up for housing 216,000 people by 2006 and providing living area for servicing staff of the new airport. Based on the case study on the development of Tung Chung New Town, this paper illustrates the relationship between transport system and land use development. In the paper, referring to many survey data and research results, the development of Tung Chung New Town is shown to be essential due to the relocation of the Hong Kong Airport. On the other hand, comparing with other new towns in Hong Kong, Tung Chung New Town is provided with better transport system links that minimize the travel time and improve the comfort and accessibility to other parts of the territory. This makes Tung Chung New Town a more attractive new town for people to reside. 1 Introduction In the past twenty years, the Hong Kong International Airport at Kai Tak has commenced a series of improvement to cater for the continuous growth in passengers and cargo.
