Justin Tseng proposes a multi-story carpark building and MTR station for Ma Wan

I have heard that District counsellor Justin Tseng has proposed a multi-story carpark for Ma Wan along with a Ma Wan MTR station to the Government and also to property developer Sun Hung Kai.

The location proposed iss under Tsing Ma Bridge (currently a football field). Cars would access the building with a short bridge from Ma Wan Road.

If you have any details on this proposal, please do let me know.

Justin, if you are reading this please feel free to post here and elaborate also.

    Don't take away the football field!!! you can build the car park next to it, right where the coaches are parking currently.

    Agree with anonymous. There is no need to build on the football field. Multi-storey car park can be multi use, with ground floor for Caoch/buses while upper floors for private cars.
    Justin Tseng has my support.

    how did you learn this?
    do you know what the procedure is, and a time-scale?
    how do we get in touch with Justin, surely a feasibility study would be needed.

    A car park can be build in any location nearby.No need to take away the football field.It is best to discussed this matter briefly before deciding to destroy anything.

    I'm a big supporter of this and I am sure if you look at it long term it will happen.

    Here's an idea? Why not remove that hidious Noah's Ark and replace that with a car park or a big structure like entertainment building/hotel etc with bottom 8 levels for parking both for residents and guests. Now would that not work for all? And who would really miss the Ark apart from currupt Mr Kwok's religius wife?

    Any update on this? The sooner they get rid of the Ark and replace it with something more useful the better. A hotel and shopping complex with parking for residents woudl be ideal.

Pool facilities on Park Island

Image
My favorite pool on Park Island is the outdoor pool at the Blue Blue Club. Blue Blue Club Outdoor Pool Right now, as things warm up, one thing I enjoy is eating a meal overlooking the pool, and then having a relaxing swim, followed by relaxation the jacuzzie. I usually swim 2 to 3 times a week, and I find it a great form of exercise. One thing I really like about Park Island is that apart being surrounded by ocean (where you can swim if you wish) there are a large number of resort-style pools to chose from on the island. The Blue Blue club has the outdoor pool (pictured above) and an excellent Olympic style indoor pool (pictured below), also with 3 jacuzzie (one large mixed-sex one, and then one each in the mens and ladies rooms, along with steam saunas, dry saunas, etc). Blue Blue Club Indoor Pool The other pools are located at the Green Green Club house, in the middle of the Park Island (again with communal jacizzie), and also a huge outdoor pool near the Phase 5 apartments...

As promised, here is an update on the discussions I have had with the Hong Kong Planning Department and the Hong Kong Transport Department. First, below is the actual response I received in relation to submissions and inquiries related to allowing access and car parking for private cars for Park Island residents.  This office has consulted Transport Department on your proposal. T his email serves as a coordinated reply by Planning Department and Transport Department. The construction of the Airport Core Projects had impacts on the planning for Ma Wan. The Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok is about 12km to the west. The Lantau Link, which is the major transport link between Lantau and the urban area, passes over Ma Wan. Ma Wan is located at a prominent location along the Tsing Ma and Lantau transport corridor and subject to traffic capacity and infrastructure constraints. Comprehensive planning and control on development on the island with due regard to ...

Green Green Club on Park Island

Image
Park Island has a number of club houses across the Estate. All residents can use any of the club facilities. Normally I hang out at the Blue Blue club, as I like the outdoor pool with the infinity effect overlooking the ocean, but I recently went to the Green Green club for a change, and took a look around. Here are my pics, in no particular order: -The club house has lots of activities for kids (and adults posted). Here is a snapshot of one of several pages of current activities. Park Island Activities for Residents Childrens' activities on Park Island -The Green Green club has a number of insulated music rooms, some with pianos and others empty. This is a GREAT idea for people (and children) who wish to practice music without disturbing neighbours. Its also a good idea for anyone who likes to play the piano, but does not want one taking up space in their apartment! Park Island Music Room -At the center of the club house there is a nice open roof "zoo". See...
