Tung Chung New Town Extension

In 2007, the Government decided to proceed with the Hong Kong – Zhuhai – Macao Bridge and Tuen
Mun – Chek Lap Kok Link in the vicinity of Tung Chung. Against this background, and as part of the
Government’s enhanced efforts to increase housing land supply, there is a need to review and establish
the planning and engineering feasibility of the remaining development of Tung Chung New Town to meet
the long-term housing need of our community.

In 2012, the Tung Chung New Town Extension (TCNTE) Study was commissioned by the Government
with the overall objective to extend Tung Chung into a distinct community and propose a development
plan which can meet housing, social, economic, environmental and local needs. Taking into account
the public views and the planning and technical assessments, the Recommended Outline Development
Plans (RODPs) for the TCNTE areas were finalised in 2016. The total area of TCNTE, covering Tung
Chung East (TCE) extension and Tung Chung West (TCW) extension, is over 200 ha including 130 ha
obtained from reclamation in TCE.

Statutory town plans, namely Tung Chung Extension Area Outline Zoning Plan (OZP), Tung Chung Town
Centre Area OZP and Tung Chung Valley OZP (Figure 16), incorporated the land use proposals in the
RODPs were gazetted in 2016 and subsequently approved by the Chief Executive in Council in 2017.
