CitySpeak: Is transport the solution or the enemy?

城市中的發展與交通息息相關,我們應如何將各種交通網絡互相聯繫,為下一代創建一個適宜居住的環境?

由於半山區發展限制解禁、重建門檻降低、發展密度的壓力日漸增加等因素,令香港多個舊區面臨車流增加和路邊空氣污染的問題。

我們如何處理與中國大陸之間道路聯繫的交通增長?我們還要在海濱興建多少新的道路?公共交通車輛是否太多造成路上堵塞? 將路面行人過路區改為行人隧道或天橋是否恰當?

香港有沒有計畫發展環保的交通運輸和美觀怡人的街道?要創造更適宜行人的道路環境,我們還有什麼寄望? 最新的車輛引擎工程技術可否解決我們面對的問題?香港會在何時推出電子道路收費?新的鐵路線足夠我們使用嗎?啟德、中環及西九有何環保交通計劃?香港有沒有可持續的(運輸)方案?

規劃師、工程師、學者及政府官員將會討論交通系統對我們的城市是利是害?
Development and transport are closely related, but how do we connect the dots and guarantee a livable city for future generations?

Lifting the moratorium in Mid-levels, reducing the threshold for redevelopment and the constant pressure to increase density are all choking the older parts of Hong Kong with more traffic and roadside air pollution.

How do we deal with the increased traffic on new roads to the Mainland? How many more roads are we planning to build on our waterfront? Is there too much public transport clogging up our roads? Is replacing pedestrian crossings with subways and footbridges a good thing?

What plans are there for environmentally friendly transport and aesthetically more pleasing transport infrastructure in Hong Kong? Where are the hopes for making our city more pedestrian-friendly? Can new engine technology solve our problems? Could electronic road pricing help? Will the new rail lines be enough? Do we have a sustainable (transport) plan for our city?

Planners, engineers, academics and officials will discuss whether transport is our solution or our enemy.
