Poursuivant le Harbour Plan Review engagé en décembre 2006, le Planing Department de Hong Kong a lancé une nouvelle phase du redéveloppement de son waterfront. C'est le site de Hung Hom, dans le cadre du programme de Victoria Harbor, qui est concerné. Après une étude sur les possibilités d'aménagement offertes, une deuxième étape vise à recueillir des avis sur les propositions formulées.

The enhancement proposals were prepared subsequent to the completion of the Stage 1 Public Engagement Programme in February 2007.
Revised land use framework and enhancement proposals are formulated mainly for four Potential Development Sites (PDS) along the Hung Hom harbour-front. They cover land currently occupied by the KCRC Freight Yard, the International Mail Centre, the Comprehensive Development Area and adjoining open space fronting Hung Hom Bay, land zoned "Residential (Group A)2" along Hung Luen Road and the Tai Wan Shan Park. There are also proposals for enhancement of the public realm and measures to improve connectivity of the Hung Hom harbour-front area.

The Hung Hom District Study, as part of the Harbour Plan Review, began in December, 2006, to formulate a comprehensive district plan to guide the planning and design of the Hung Hom harbour-front area with a view to creating an attractive, accessible and vibrant waterfront for public enjoyment and integrating the new development areas with the adjoining waterfront districts and Hung Hom hinterland.

The Stage 1 Public Engagement Programme sought views on people's perception of the Hung Hom harbour-front area and visions on how to enhance the area. The Stage 2 Public Engagement Programme aims to solicit views on the proposals, which are formulated having regard to the Town Planning Board's Vision Statement for Victoria Harbour, the Harbour Planning Principles and Harbour Planning Guidelines promulgated by the Harbour-front Enhancement Committee, the Urban Design Guidelines of the Hong Kong Planning Standards and Guidelines as well as the community aspirations expressed earlier this year.
