Transport and Logistics Bureau and Civil Engineering and Development Department invite industry to attend briefing sessions on Smart and Green Mass Transit System in Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area Phase 1 project
******************************************************************************************
The briefing sessions aim to provide the industry with information on the project scheme, procurement and financial arrangements, and key tender conditions, with a view to encouraging more local, Chinese Mainland, and overseas organisations of the industry to participate in the tender exercise.
The TLB and the CEDD cordially invite representatives from relevant organisations, including contractors, operators, consultants, system suppliers and manufacturers, and developers interested in participating in the project, to attend the briefing sessions. The enrolment details and forms for the briefing sessions are in the Annex. Completed enrolment forms should be submitted on or before February 12.
The SGMTS integrates environmentally friendly and smart technologies to enhance transport efficiency, safety, and convenience. Compared to the heavy rail system, the SGMTS will feature a medium-to-low carrying capacity characterised by its energy efficient, intelligent, and convenient nature.
The SGMTS in HSK/HT NDA is about 16 kilometres in length, most of which are dedicated roads, plying through the HSK/HT and Yuen Long South (YLS) NDAs. The system will adopt a green road-based mode without the need for physical rail tracks. It will be implemented in phases to cater for the traffic and transport demand of the different stages of development of the HSK/HT and YLS NDAs. Phase 1 of the system is about 4.5km in length with seven proposed at-grade stations, with a view to tying in with the Second Phase Development of HSK/HT NDA. Phase 1 of the system will connect Nai Wai to the vicinity of the Logistics, Enterprise and Technology Quarter in HSK/HT NDA, passing through the town centre and residential area of the NDA, and connecting to MTR Tuen Ma Line Hung Shui Kiu Station, Light Rail Nai Wai Stop, and the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Western Rail Link (Hung Shui Kiu-Qianhai) under planning. It will provide the public with convenient feeder services to travel to various districts of Hong Kong. Tenders for the project are expected to be invited in the second half of 2026, with the target for commissioning in 2031 or earlier.
