1.  North Lantau Corridor

            To capitalise on the ‘Double Gateway’ strategic
            location and for the sustainable growth of Hong

            Kong, the following key developments along
            North Lantau Corridor will form a critical mass to
            promote agglomeration economies and accelerate

            the overall economic development of Hong Kong:




                                                                        North Lantau (From Tai Ho to Sunny Bay)


            Future Developments on Airport Island including the Three-Runway System and
            North Commercial District

            The 3RS project will involve construction of a new

            runway, a new terminal, an airfield and associated
            facilities on the 650-hectare newly reclaimed land.
            Upon completion of the project, about 123 000
            direct jobs will be available at HKIA.


            Located  next  to  the  airport,  the  integrated
  25        development of SKYCITY will comprise retail
            complexes, entertainment facilities, dining areas,
            hotels and offices.                                             The Three-Runway System Project
                                                                        (Courtesy of Airport Authority Hong Kong)



            Topside Development at HKBCF Island of HZMB

            Other than being the landing point of HZMB, the

            HKBCF Island is merely 1 kilometre away from
            the HKIA and is well connected to North Lantau
            and the Northwestern New Territories via TM-

            CLKL.  Future topside development at this island
            could enjoy the great potential for providing office,
            modern logistics, retail, dining and entertainment
            facilities as well as meeting and convention facilities
            under the development theme of  ‘the World

            Converging’.
