Cavern Master Plan                                                                                      EvEnts In BrIEf



            The ‘Long-term Strategy for Cavern Development – Feasibility Study’ completed by CEDD in
            conjunction with the Department has formulated a strategic territory-wide Cavern Master Plan
            (CMP) to facilitate planning and implementing cavern development.  The CMP is a planning
            tool providing a broad strategic planning framework to guide and facilitate territory-wide cavern

            development in Hong Kong.


            The CMP was awarded the Winner of the 'Innovative Underground Space Concept of the Year'
            in the International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association Tunnelling Awards 2017
            in Paris in November 2017.


            At the invitation of the Built Environment Trust in the United Kingdom, the CMP has
            showcased alongside some of the best underground projects internationally at an exhibition on

            ‘Welcome to the Underworld’ at the Building Centre in Central London as a ground-breaking
            case study from early March until late June 2018.  The event space is dedicated to promoting
            innovation in the built environment and viewed by audience of architects, engineers and
            planners as well as the public.
