The Government promulgated the Transport Strategy Blueprint (the Blueprint) today (6 February), setting out the vision and strategic directions for Hong Kong’s transport development in the coming years.
To embrace current opportunities and challenges, Hong Kong must adopt a forward-looking vision, innovative thinking, and make the best use of technology to build a reliable, safe, smart, environmentally friendly, and highly efficient transport system. The Traffic and Transport Strategy Study has brought together the collective insights of Hong Kong’s transport industry, the Legislative Council, professional bodies, and relevant stakeholders, and leveraged the latest travel data and scientific analysis, to map out a Blueprint for Hong Kong’s future transport development, advocated a vision of “Implementing a People-centric Approach, Strengthening Connectivity with Both the Mainland and the World, Promoting Efficient Travel, and Embraced a Green Lifestyle” to reinforce Hong Kong’s role as a regional hub.
The Blueprint, structured around three main themes of “Enjoyable Journeys”, “Well-Connected City” and “Healthy Mobility”, sets out six key strategies and 25 recommendations. Combining “policy innovation” and “technological innovation” to form a dual-innovation mindset, the Blueprint offers a fresh interpretation for further enhancing public transport services, facilitating cross-boundary commuting, advancing smart transformation, and promoting green low-carbon travel in the future. Through the implementation of the Blueprint, we aim to create a city that is more liveable, business-friendly and attractive to visitors, fostering Hong Kong’s economic and sustainable development, and jointly telling the world a compelling story about Hong Kong’s transport and mobility.
