HARBOURFRONT CYCLEWAY FEASIBILITY STUDY ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Prepared by: Hong Kong Cycling Alliance    Revision 3.0 Further consideration has also been given to the comments received by us at the Harbourfront Commission on 7 th  September 2011.
Response to comments “ The Cycleway is only for the cyclists in Hong Kong” The Cycleway will give connectivity to the entire harbourfront for everybody visiting the attractions, as well as it being an attraction itself.
Response to comments “ It’s impossible to enjoy the view while cycling” Cycling is a great way to see the surrounding views, particularly when on segregated routes when little other traffic is around.
Response to comments “ you can't imagine a guy going from Shau Kei Wan up to Soho, even if he did, he would have to drop off his bike and walk the two kilometers uphill to where he’s going” Cycling is a great way to improve public health and can be a great alternative to cramped & claustrophobic public transport. Going from the cycleway up to Soho is actually the easiest part of the journey, using the mid-levels escalator, as everyone else does.
Response to comments “ Hong Kong is different to other cycling cites around the world” Hong Kong is different and unique, just like every other city is.  So if they have all overcome barriers and local conditions, and everywhere has, so can we .
Response to comments “ It is not the policy of the government to encourage cycling as transport” Martins answer.
Response to comments “ there isn’t room for adding a cycleway on the harbourfront” We have identified a route already, and a flexible approach means that we can find a way. The currently designed Central - Wanchai cycle track on the Harbourfront development already finds its way along the harbourfront, crossing pedestrian paths and making its way through the park. We can extend this concept throughout the harbourfront cycleway.
Response to comments “ there isn’t space for a cycleway along the harbourfront” Flexible designs mean that the cycleway can change it’s style and follow the most suitable locations as it progresses along the route.
Response to comments “ the roads in Hong Kong are too busy” The isolated sections of roads we are suggesting to use are quiet, seldom used roads. Mixed-use car and cycle sections have been minimised in the design of the route.
Response to comments “ Hong Kong Island is a dense urban environment” Whilst we agree that Hong Kong Island is a dense urban environment, it is this type of dichotomy that gives the cycleway and its views great appeal. The cycleway is planned to be segregated for the majority of its route, so the dense urban environment is only a background to the panoramic views.
Response to comments “ The cycle tracks are in the New Territories, cyclists can go there to ride” The Hong Kong Island Cycleway has a different role than most of the New Territory cycle tracks as it is designed to be more than simply recreational, but also for access to separated amenities along the harbourfront by tourists and the Hong Kong public.
Response to comments “ most cycling in Hong Kong is recreational” All cycling is recreational to some extent, but the Harbourfront Cycleway is seen primarily as a way to give tourists and the public connectivity to all of the Harbourfront attractions, as well as being an attraction itself.
Response to comments “ Cycling should only be on segregated cycle tracks” With a careful and modern design philosophy, a cycleway along the harbourfront can be achieved. Learning from cycleway designs around the world will enable the more challenging areas of the route to be accomplished.
Response to comments “ cycling is not compatible with pedestrians ” Cyclists are simply ‘enabled pedestrians’. A cyclist can stop and lock their bike, immediately becoming a pedestrian.
Response to comments “ the LCSD do not allow cycling within their parks” Permission to allow cycling in LCSD parks is at the discretion of the LCSD director, and it is hoped that with the public behind us, the LCSD can support the Harbourfront Cycleway also.
Response to comments “ how do cyclists get their bikes to the cycleway” Bike hire stations give enable Hong Kong residents and tourists to enjoy the cycleway whenever and wherever they prefer. People that cycle on the roads already will be given another ‘less traffic’ route to travel.
Response to comments “ T he IEC space is five metres, not nine” In our survey, the IEC columns are generally 9.7m apart, however we agree that in some cases near the slip roads this varies. With alternative design solutions such as shown in the HK Cycling Alliance IEC boardwalk video, we believe that incorporating the cycleway adjacent to the boardwalk is entirely possible.
Response to comments “ the cycleway is not an enabling component of the harbourfront” The Government has directed that the Harbourfront should be connected using an environmental transport system, and the cycleway offers this for relatively little investment when compared to other larger scale alternatives.
Hong Kong Island Cycling routes The existing route indicated is defined as the current continuous legal route nearest the harbour front that cyclists can use. The preliminary route indicated is possible with very minor improvements such as painting lines to create the cycleway and adding signs to find the most harbourfront route. The new route indicated is our interpretation of the best possible future route considering future developments, with the least impact on existing facilities to be maintained. The route is found to be highly feasible along its whole length, with respect to existing land use and ownership, connectivity, topography and adjacent features. Challenges of this route are noted at: •   Restricted width of public access around Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter •   Gas pigging station between Quarry Bay Park Phase 1 and Hoi Yu Street area

Kowloon cycling routes The existing route indicated is defined as the current continuous legal route nearest the harbour front that cyclists can use. The new route indicated is our interpretation of the best possible future route considering future developments, with the least impact on existing facilities to be maintained. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],For the Kowloon Peninsula, this report presents only an overview of a possible continuous harbourfront cycle route.  Further consideration of these key difficulties is required.
Cycle track network in Kai Tak Development The cycle track network in the Kai Tak Development, proposed by CEDD and welcomed by relevant District Councils, offers a very promising basis for the provision of a continuous harbourfront cycleway in eastern Kowloon.

PRACTICAL DESIGN GUIDELINES Hong Kong guidelines from the Transport Planning and Design Manual can productively be supplemented by consideration of design guidelines from other major cities around the world. Particularly useful is the information from NACTO (National Association of City Transportation Officials) in the US. They give very clear, detailed, and up-to-date guidance on cycleway design in urban environments  See:  http://nacto.org/cities-for-cycling/design-guide/
Sign Typical cycleway / pedestrian interchange features Major public access to waterfront Cyclists dismount At intersections with   major pedestrian paths, cyclists must dismount Sign typical public access to waterfront Give way to pedestrians At intersections with significant pedestrian paths, cyclists must give way to pedestrians
Typical cycleway connectivity features Minor pedestrian crossings marked and protected with bollards  Cycleway interface with nearby roads where appropriate Bicycle parking Sign Give way to cyclists Pedestrian bridge
Typical cycleway / pedestrian interchange features Cycleways are protected by bollards, allowing free flow of pedestrians, whilst also alerting them to the cycleway  Open public area A different surface colour can increase visibility and awareness of the cycleway

Hk harbourfront cycleway route by hkcall (rev 3)

  • 1.
  • 2. Response to comments “ The Cycleway is only for the cyclists in Hong Kong” The Cycleway will give connectivity to the entire harbourfront for everybody visiting the attractions, as well as it being an attraction itself.
  • 3. Response to comments “ It’s impossible to enjoy the view while cycling” Cycling is a great way to see the surrounding views, particularly when on segregated routes when little other traffic is around.
  • 4. Response to comments “ you can't imagine a guy going from Shau Kei Wan up to Soho, even if he did, he would have to drop off his bike and walk the two kilometers uphill to where he’s going” Cycling is a great way to improve public health and can be a great alternative to cramped & claustrophobic public transport. Going from the cycleway up to Soho is actually the easiest part of the journey, using the mid-levels escalator, as everyone else does.
  • 5. Response to comments “ Hong Kong is different to other cycling cites around the world” Hong Kong is different and unique, just like every other city is. So if they have all overcome barriers and local conditions, and everywhere has, so can we .
  • 6. Response to comments “ It is not the policy of the government to encourage cycling as transport” Martins answer.
  • 7. Response to comments “ there isn’t room for adding a cycleway on the harbourfront” We have identified a route already, and a flexible approach means that we can find a way. The currently designed Central - Wanchai cycle track on the Harbourfront development already finds its way along the harbourfront, crossing pedestrian paths and making its way through the park. We can extend this concept throughout the harbourfront cycleway.
  • 8. Response to comments “ there isn’t space for a cycleway along the harbourfront” Flexible designs mean that the cycleway can change it’s style and follow the most suitable locations as it progresses along the route.
  • 9. Response to comments “ the roads in Hong Kong are too busy” The isolated sections of roads we are suggesting to use are quiet, seldom used roads. Mixed-use car and cycle sections have been minimised in the design of the route.
  • 10. Response to comments “ Hong Kong Island is a dense urban environment” Whilst we agree that Hong Kong Island is a dense urban environment, it is this type of dichotomy that gives the cycleway and its views great appeal. The cycleway is planned to be segregated for the majority of its route, so the dense urban environment is only a background to the panoramic views.
  • 11. Response to comments “ The cycle tracks are in the New Territories, cyclists can go there to ride” The Hong Kong Island Cycleway has a different role than most of the New Territory cycle tracks as it is designed to be more than simply recreational, but also for access to separated amenities along the harbourfront by tourists and the Hong Kong public.
  • 12. Response to comments “ most cycling in Hong Kong is recreational” All cycling is recreational to some extent, but the Harbourfront Cycleway is seen primarily as a way to give tourists and the public connectivity to all of the Harbourfront attractions, as well as being an attraction itself.
  • 13. Response to comments “ Cycling should only be on segregated cycle tracks” With a careful and modern design philosophy, a cycleway along the harbourfront can be achieved. Learning from cycleway designs around the world will enable the more challenging areas of the route to be accomplished.
  • 14. Response to comments “ cycling is not compatible with pedestrians ” Cyclists are simply ‘enabled pedestrians’. A cyclist can stop and lock their bike, immediately becoming a pedestrian.
  • 15. Response to comments “ the LCSD do not allow cycling within their parks” Permission to allow cycling in LCSD parks is at the discretion of the LCSD director, and it is hoped that with the public behind us, the LCSD can support the Harbourfront Cycleway also.
  • 16. Response to comments “ how do cyclists get their bikes to the cycleway” Bike hire stations give enable Hong Kong residents and tourists to enjoy the cycleway whenever and wherever they prefer. People that cycle on the roads already will be given another ‘less traffic’ route to travel.
  • 17. Response to comments “ T he IEC space is five metres, not nine” In our survey, the IEC columns are generally 9.7m apart, however we agree that in some cases near the slip roads this varies. With alternative design solutions such as shown in the HK Cycling Alliance IEC boardwalk video, we believe that incorporating the cycleway adjacent to the boardwalk is entirely possible.
  • 18. Response to comments “ the cycleway is not an enabling component of the harbourfront” The Government has directed that the Harbourfront should be connected using an environmental transport system, and the cycleway offers this for relatively little investment when compared to other larger scale alternatives.
  • 19. Hong Kong Island Cycling routes The existing route indicated is defined as the current continuous legal route nearest the harbour front that cyclists can use. The preliminary route indicated is possible with very minor improvements such as painting lines to create the cycleway and adding signs to find the most harbourfront route. The new route indicated is our interpretation of the best possible future route considering future developments, with the least impact on existing facilities to be maintained. The route is found to be highly feasible along its whole length, with respect to existing land use and ownership, connectivity, topography and adjacent features. Challenges of this route are noted at: •   Restricted width of public access around Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter •   Gas pigging station between Quarry Bay Park Phase 1 and Hoi Yu Street area
  • 20. Kennedy Town Harbourfront CYCLEWAY LEAVES CADOGAN PARK ALONGSIDE THE ROAD, AND THEN ALONG KENNEDY TOWN PRAYA EXISTING ROUTE – ONE-WAY SYSTEM AROUND KENNEDY TOWN MEANS CYCLISTS MUST USE THE VERY BUSY BELCHERS ROAD CONNECTIVITY TO KENNEDY TOWN MTR BICYCLE PARKING/HIRE FACILITY

  • 91. Kowloon Harbourfront TUEN MUN TO TSUEN WAN CYCLE PATH EXISTING ROUTE – COMES INLAND TO AVOID HIGHWAY CONTAINER TERMINAL & INDUSTRIAL AREAS MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO REACH THE WATERFRONT EXISTING ROUTE – THROUGH CONTAINER TERMINALS WITH HEAVY GOODS TRAFFIC NEW KAI TAK DEVELOPMENT SHOWS A WATERFRONT CYCLE TRACK AROUND MOST OF THE PERIMETER IT IS NOT CURRENTLY POSSIBLE TO CROSS THE HARBOUR TUNNEL APPROACH ROADS NEAR HUNG HOM BY BICYCLE, SO WE MUST USE ARGYLE ST. AND PRINCE EDWARD ROAD EAST
  • 92. Kowloon Harbourfront INSTALLATION OF A CYCLEWAY INTO THE WKCD PLANNING IS CRITICAL FOR ANY FUTURE ROUTE IT IS NOT CURRENTLY POSSIBLE TO CROSS THE HARBOUR TUNNEL APPROACH ROADS NEAR HUNG HOM BY BICYCLE, SO WE MUST USE ARGYLE ST. AND PRINCE EDWARD ROAD EAST TO GET TO KAI TAK NEW KAI TAK DEVELOPMENT SHOWS A WATERFRONT CYCLE TRACK AROUND MOST OF THE PERIMETER FOLLOWING THE WATERFRONT TOWARDS HUNG HOM, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO PASS OVER THE TUNNEL APPROACH ROADS INSTALLING A CYCLEWAY AROUND TSIM SHA TSUI TO HUNG HOM WATERFRONT WOULD INVOLVE MAJOR INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES
  • 93. PRACTICAL DESIGN GUIDELINES Hong Kong guidelines from the Transport Planning and Design Manual can productively be supplemented by consideration of design guidelines from other major cities around the world. Particularly useful is the information from NACTO (National Association of City Transportation Officials) in the US. They give very clear, detailed, and up-to-date guidance on cycleway design in urban environments See: http://nacto.org/cities-for-cycling/design-guide/
