Government Signature
Project
The Chief Executive's 2013 Policy Address
earmarked a one-off funding of $100 million to
each district to implement Signature Projects
under the Signature Project Scheme. Within
the Sai Kung District, two Signature Projects
have been identified. One of them falls within
Tseung Kwan O which involves converting
the ex-Tiu Keng Leng Police Station into the
Heritage Information Centre (Figure 20) and
two ex-police quarters into a holiday camp
(Figure 21). The ex-Tiu Keng Leng Police
Station ceased operation in 1992. The Heritage
Information Centre is scheduled to open in 2020.
The Signature Project forms an integral part of
Tseung Kwan O Heritage Hiking Trail.

Area 137
A desalination plant has been proposed by the Water
Supplies Department at the southeastern corner of
Area 137 (Figure 22) providing fresh water supply for
the local community.
The development potential of the remaining area
of Area 137 will be examined under a planning and
engineering study jointly commissioned by the
Planning Department and Civil Engineering and
Development Department. The area will provide
an extensive area of about 80 ha. Its feasibility to
cater for different land uses, such as residential,
commercial and other development purposes to meet
the foreseeable development needs of Hong Kong
will be strategically and comprehensively explored.
