Policy Address

Strategic Studies beyond 2030

150. The Government will take forward strategic studies on railways and major roads beyond 2030 based on “Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030”, so that the planning of major transport infrastructure can support the long-term land use strategy of Hong Kong.

Rail Links

151. Connecting with the national high-speed rail network, the Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link will greatly shorten the travelling time between Hong Kong and major cities in the Mainland, and consolidate Hong Kong’s position as a regional transport hub. The project will generate enormous economic and social benefits. We will continue to oversee the works and take forward various preparations with a view to accomplishing the targeted commissioning of service in the third quarter of next year.
