  • "Relocation of Sha Tin Sewage Treatment Works to Caverns" Thematic Exhibition

    Date: 2 December 2020 to 14 January 2021

    To enable the public to gain a better understanding of the project of “Relocation of Sha Tin Sewage Treatment Works to Caverns”, the Drainage Services Department (DSD) will hold the thematic exhibition at City Gallery from 2 December 2020 to 14 January 2021. Through videos, display panels, computer games and physical model, the thematic exhibition will introduce the project’s latest development and innovative technology applied.

    There is a pressing need to increase land supply for various uses by sustainable and innovative approaches to support social and economic development in Hong Kong. Rock cavern development is one of the feasible approaches to release our land resources. The Sha Tin STW is earmarked for relocation to a number of caverns to be excavated in Nui Po Shan opposite Shing Mun River. Sha Tin STW is the largest secondary STW in Hong Kong. Its relocation to caverns could release about 28 hectares of land on the existing Sha Tin STW site for other uses that benefit the public and improve the living environment of the district.

    The future Sha Tin STW relocated in a cavern complex will be the largest of its kind in Hong Kong. The relocation plan will be implemented by stages, including site preparation and access tunnel construction, main caverns construction and upstream sewerage collection works, sewage treatment facilities installation, as well as decommission and demolition of the existing Sha Tin STW.

  • Roving Exhibition - Stage 2 Public Engagement for the Pilot Study on Underground Space Development in Selected Strategic Urban Areas

    Date: 5 June 2019 to 12 June 2019
    Venue: 3/F Meeting Room, City Gallery
    Time: Monday to Thursday: 10:00 - 18:00
    Friday to Sunday and Public Holidays: 10:00 - 19:00
    Closed on Tuesdays (except Public Holidays)

    The Civil Engineering and Development Department and the Planning Department launched the Stage 2 Public Engagement for the Pilot Study on Underground Space Development in Selected Strategic Urban Areas on May 22.

    The Study, which commenced in June 2015, aims to explore the potential for underground space development in four selected strategic urban areas (SUAs), namely Tsim Sha Tsui West, Causeway Bay, Happy Valley, and Admiralty/Wan Chai. As revealed by the Stage 1 Public Engagement completed in February 2017, the public generally agreed that the proper utilisation of underground space and provision of an all-weather pedestrian network could alleviate the overcrowded street-level walking environment and improve pedestrian connectivity. It could also provide diverse uses/facilities for the benefit of the community through a holistic planning approach. Among the conceptual schemes of the four SUAs, the Study recommends according priority to taking forward the Kowloon Park Conceptual Scheme in Tsim Sha Tsui West.      

    The Kowloon Park Conceptual Scheme comprises multi-purpose underground space for accommodating an all-weather and barrier-free underground pedestrian network. Various facilities such as community space, retail/food and beverage and car-parking facilities are also included in the Scheme to address imminent needs and enhance the use of underground space.      

    In formulating the proposed Kowloon Park Conceptual Scheme, consideration has been made to provide diversified space to enhance accessibility and walkability. The departments will also strive to minimise possible disruptions caused by underground space development to the park, retain Old and Valuable Trees in the park, and preserve built heritage and the Bird Lake. The proposed conceptual scheme will improve the park area's appearance and re-establish a sustainable green park after the underground space construction.     

    The Stage 2 Public Engagement of the Study will last for three months to seek public views on the latest recommendations of the Study, including the proposed Kowloon Park Conceptual Scheme. Roving exhibitions, focus group meetings, weekend public events and consultations with key stakeholders will be held during the public engagement period. Virtual reality experiences will be introduced in some of the roving exhibitions to assist the public in understanding the future appearance of the proposed underground space and the rejuvenated Kowloon Park.      

    The public engagement digest and details of activities are available on the Study website (www.urbanunderground.gov.hk). Members of the public are invited to provide feedback through the following channels on or before August 21, 2019:

    Looking down on Hong Kong’s Central from the Victoria Peak, one could find that the city’s vertical fabric creates a wave of towers springing up from the sloping terrain down to the harbour front, spreading along the water edge as a belt of tightly woven texture.

    The Hong Kong Response Exhibition is a continuation of the Collateral Event of 16th International Architecture Exhibition - La Biennale di Venezia, Vertical Fabric: density in landscape. Responding to the theme on “Freespace”, the exhibition demonstrates the urban conditions of Hong Kong and explores the theme of freespace through towers.

    By installing 116 towers marching along the patio extending into the exhibition rooms, the Hong Kong Response Exhibition’s vertical fabric illustrates the compactness of Hong Kong’s urban form.

    Land is the essential building block for the challenges faced by Hong Kong. In the spatial context of Hong Kong, Lantau commands an un-paralleled strategic location with a comprehensive air, road and rail transport network connected externally to other cities in the Greater Bay Area and the World as well as internally to the well-established core business area at Central. Creation of land for meeting housing and economic needs in this area would also allow a more balanced spatial distribution of population and jobs. The strategic transport facilities in support of the Lantau development could also help relieve the existing transport capacity constraint in Northwest New Territories as well as enhance connections between urban areas and the New Territories.

    To harness the strategic advantages and opportunities of Lantau, the Chief Executive announced in her Policy Address 2018 the Lantau Tomorrow Vision with a view to building a solid foundation for a sustainable future for Hong Kong.

    We will realise this vision in the coming 20 to 30 years through the following five policy directions:

     • Liveable City
     • According priority to transport infrastructure
     • Economic Powerhouse
     • Leisure and Entertainment Destination
     • Sustainability and Conservation

The programme targets two different age groups, namely, the "Teen Planners Group" (for Senior Secondary School Students) and the ‘Little Planners Group' (for Senior Primary School Students). The curriculum with a general introduction on town planning comprised of lectures, field studies and workshops led by professional town planners or from related fields, are designed to provide our younger generation with a better understanding of town planning and various aspects of the planning process in Hong Kong. We have received overwhelming responses for this year's Summer Planning School. 75 number of students from 3 primary schools and a total of 209 number of students from 47 secondary schools have participated. This exhibition on students' work is intended to share their learning experiences with the public.

      GASP! WYNG Masters Award Finalists’ Exhibition

      Date : 7 may to 19 May 2014

      AIR pollution is one of the top public health risks in Hong Kong. Levels of pollutants often exceed the limits set by the World Health Organization. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) announced in October 2013 that it has classified outdoor air pollution as carcinogenic to humans. In Hong Kong, according to a study in HKU, air pollution has led to well over 3,000 premature deaths, more than 20,000 daily doctors' visits and a monetary loss of 39 billion HKD last year.

      The WYNG Masters Award's mission is to nurture the growth of photography as an art form in Hong Kong, as well as to stimulate dialogue and foster community awareness on socially-relevant issues of critical importance to Hong Kong and its residents. Each year, a focused theme is chosen for the award. The 2013 theme is air — as Hong Kong wrestles with the health, economic, and social effects of its deteriorating air quality.

      The WYNG Masters Award Finalists’ Exhibition - Gasp! will be held at the School of Design Jockey Club Innovation Tower of Hong Kong Polytechnic University from 4 - 16 May 2014 and the City Gallery from 7 - 19 May 2014. The exhibitions will showcase the works of the seven finalists: Tommy Fung, Gao Ling, Leo Kwok, Lau Ching Ping, Siu Wai Hang, Kurt Tong and Ducky Tse Chi Tak. Student works generated from a series of school workshops will also be displayed. Participating students are encouraged to respond to the theme air through arts creations and mobile gardening. The workshops are led by Hong Kong Creates Founder Mr Joel Chung, KaCaMa Design Lab and O-Farm Founder Mr Yip Tze Shing.

      The WYNG Masters Award international panel of judges is comprised of industry leaders in photography, art, publishing, and non-profit. They include Zoher Abdoolcarim, Abby Chen, Jehan Chu, Louise Clements, Frank Kalero, Joanne Ooi, and Christopher Phillips. The recipient of the WYNG Masters Award will receive a cash prize of HKD250,000 and is selected by the judging panel. The WYNG AIR recipient, chosen by the WYNG Foundation trustees, will receive HKD250,000 to execute a project highlighting the theme air. An advisory board of industry experts will review the WYNG Masters Award finalists and their project proposals and make a recommendation to the foundation trustees.

      A series of seminars and guided tours will be organized throughout the exhibition period to raise community awareness and discussion on air pollution. A sharing session by students from school workshops and Mobile Garden parade will be held on 17 May at the City Gallery.
