Cross-Boundary Travel Survey 2017
Cross-boundary travel surveys have been conducted by
the Department once around every two years since 1999
to collect statistical information about the characteristics
of cross-boundary trips (both passenger trips and vehicle
trips) and the trip-makers. The main survey in 2017
was successfully conducted in the two-week period from
November 16 to November 29, 2017. Results of this
round of the survey will be released in late 2018.

17 Planning and Design Study on The Redevelopment of Queensway
Plaza, Admiralty – Feasibility Study
The Study confirmed the feasibility of redeveloping Queensway Plaza for commercial uses,
including Grade A office and retail uses and made recommendations to upgrade the existing
public realm and provide convenient pedestrian connections to the surroundings including
Central and Wan Chai. Rezoning required for the redevelopment was completed in 2016. To
enhance the connectivity and walkability of the area and bring vibrancy to the harbourfront, a
direct and all-weathered pedestrian connection with barrier free access between the Queensway
Plaza redevelopment and the existing Tamar footbridge via Admiralty Centre was proposed in
the study process and its engineering feasibility was subsequently confirmed. Taking advantage
of the redevelopment project, connectivity in the vicinity of Queensway Plaza will be further
improved.
