  • 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.

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.

  • A Brief Introduction About the Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point Project
    A brief introduction about the Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point Project 1st stage of presentation by Raymond Wong as on May 2017 (will be updated in stages) The Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point (LT/HYW BCP) will be the seventh land crossing between Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Currently, the two existing BCPs on the eastern side of the New Territories at Man Kam To and Sha Tau Kok are mainly used to access eastern Shenzhen and Guangdong. All cross‐boundary traffic travelling from these two existing BCPs has to travel through busy local roads in Hong Kong and Shenzhen before joining the highway systems. The LT/HYW BCP will connect with the expressway systems in Hong Kong and Shenzhen: the Shenzhen Eastern Corridor will connect the BCP with the Shenzhen‐Huizhou and Shenzhen‐Shantou Expressways while the Connecting Road in Hong Kong will connect the BCP with Fanling Highway. The new BCP will shorten the travelling time between Hong Kong and eastern Guangdong, southern Fujian and Jiangxi, thus greatly facilitating future regional cooperation and development. The new BCP will play a strategic role in sustaining the long‐term economic growth for both Guangdong and Hong Kong. From the local perspective, the new BCP will help redistribute the cross‐boundary vehicular traffic amongst the crossings in the east. This will alleviate the busy conditions at Man Kam To and Sha Tau Kok BCPs, and provide room for improvement at these BCPs so that the overall handling capacity and the quality of service of the BCPs in Hong Kong will be enhanced.
