City Speak XI - Is transport the solution or the enemy? Bruno Charade of HK Tramways
Development and transport are closely related, but how do we connect the dots and guarantee a livable city for future generations? Lifting the moratorium in Mid-levels, reducing the threshold for redevelopment and the constant pressure to increase density are all choking the older parts of Hong Kong with more traffic and roadside air pollution. How do we deal with the increased traffic on new roads to the Mainland? How many more roads are we planning to build on our waterfront? Is there too much public transport clogging up our roads? Is replacing pedestrian crossings with subways and footbridges a good thing? What plans are there for environmentally friendly transport and aesthetically more pleasing transport infrastructure in Hong Kong? Where are the hopes for making our city more pedestrian-friendly? Can new engine technology solve our problems? Could electronic road pricing help? Will the new rail lines be enough? Do we have a sustainable (transport) plan for our city? Planners, engineers, academics and officials will discuss whether transport is our solution or our enemy. Designing Hong Kong is a not-for-profit organisation focused on sustainable urban planning.
