Cyberport Expansion Project 數碼港擴建計劃

23/6/2020

[23/6/2020]

Town Planning Board responds to community objections

The minutes of the 1224th meeting of the Town Planning Board held on 5.6.2020 shows that objections of residents have partially been upheld, resulting in changes to the Outline Zoning Plan.
  1. Although the planning parameters have been approved for building on part of the park, Cyberport will now first have to present detailed layout plans of its expansion plans for public consultation and approval by the Town Planning Board under section 16 of the Ordinance. This will give Cyberport another chance to take proper account of community input.
  2. The explanatory statement will state that “Opportunity may be given to explore whether a walking trail could be developed along this planned open space and other coastal areas to enhance pedestrian connectivity along the coast of Waterfall Bay, Telegraph Bay and Sandy Bay at Pok Fu Lam for public enjoyment”.
  3. Lastly, the Sandy Bay site will no longer be designated for school development.
The above three changes will be subject to a round of consultation. We will keep you posted.

城規會回應居民訴求
2020年6月5日的城規會會議記錄已上載於網站(暫只提供英文版)。委員會接納居民部分意見,並修改分區計劃大綱圖的部分內容。
  1. 雖然城規會就規劃參數批准數碼港於公園的一部份範圍內擴建數碼港,但數碼港需要先交出擴建項目的詳細藍圖,並根據城市規劃條例第16條作公眾諮詢及交給城規會審批。數碼港可於過程中聆聽居民意見並作出適當修定。
  2. 大綱圖的說明書會列明「應給予機會研究於此公共空間及沿岸地方興建行人徑,以改善連接瀑布灣、鋼線灣及大口環的行人暢達度及供市民享用」。
  3. 最後,大口環的用地不會被指定為學校用途。
當局會就以上三個改動再作諮詢。如有進一步消息,我們會再通知大家。

Additional analyses of visuals impacts and plans for road improvements were released today to the Southern District Council

We are asking for an additional visual impact from the roof of Presidential Towers at Baguio Villas, and for the Traffic Impact Assessment. We made suggestions on road improvements.

Motions were passed calling for associated works including road improvements, MTR station and pedestrian links along the waterfront. 

Government is preparing the rezoning of the waterfront area to allow for the development. The procedure will allow for further community input. We expect this to proceed in September.

數碼港今日發佈了新的模擬相片及簡介道路改善建議。

我們已要求他們提供從下碧瑤董事樓天台望向數碼港的模擬相片,及交通影響評估報告。我們對多個道路改善方案提供了建議。

區議會今日通過兩項動議,要求政府開展多項周邊工程,包括改善對外道路交通、於數碼港設置港鐵站及將海濱長廊連接起來。

我們預計政府部門將於9月左右向城規會遞交文件修改土地用途,屆時居民可發表意見。​

Background ​背景資料

Broken Promises – New Outline Zoning Plan for Pok Fu Lam S/H10/18
 
Government has published the revised Outline Zoning Plan for Pok Fu Lam. Deadline for comments is 27 November 2019.
 
Click here for the full paper
Click here for our analyses
Click here for our online petition
Click here for Town Planning Board website
 
Promises made in 1999 - 2001
 
When the Cyberport concept was conceived, government made promises to the Town Planning Board and the Legislative Council:
  1. A building profile that limits visual impacts, and
  2. A landscaped promenade linking Sandy Bay and Waterfall Bay park.  
Now 20 years later, government plans to change the building profile and build Cyberport 5 higher than the adjacent Arcade. This will impact the view for residents.
 
Moreover, the promised links to Sandy Bay and Waterfall Bay park have yet to be built.
 
There are other changes in the Outline Zoning Plan. Importantly, government is rezoning the land behind Sandy Bay rocky beach for an international school.This will create more school traffic problems.

Sign our online petition here.
 
We have analysed the full paper, and advise the residents as follows: 
  1. Object to height of Cyberport 5. Should be lower than Arcade.
  2. Object to parking and roads in park – put all in a basement.
  3. Support formalizing Cyberport Waterfront as Open Space.
  4. Request a budget and program for Cyberport Waterfront enhancement.
  5. Object to building another school at Sandy Bay on traffic grounds.
  6. Request a waterfront promenade along Sandy Bay.
  7. Support removing the coastal highway Route 7.
  8. Support a continuous promenade along the coast of Pokfulam.
  9. Request changes to the proposed road improvements.
You can use our online form to respond and add your own views. The deadline is 27 November 2019. Feel free to contact me at info@paulzimmerman.hk with your queries and comments.

政府未有履行承諾 - 薄扶林分區計劃大綱草圖 S/H10/18

政府已發佈修訂後的薄扶林分區計劃大綱圖,公眾諮詢截止日期為2019年11月27日。

全份文件:連結
我們的分析:連結
我們的網上聯署:連結
城市規劃委員會網站:連結

1999至2001年的承諾

政府當年在城市規劃委員會及立法會討論數碼港項目時承諾 :

1)為減低對居民景觀的影響,採用特定的建築物高度輪廓 。
2)興建海濱長廊將大口環及瀑布灣公園連接起來。

約20年後的今天,政府提出興建數碼港5期,新大樓比旁邊數碼港商場為高,會影響居民的景觀。另外承諾多時的海濱長廊(連接至大口環及瀑布灣公園)至今仍然未兌現。

分區計劃大綱草圖亦包括其他修訂,當中政府於大口環石灘位置預留一幅地興建國際學校。如落實的話,區內的交通擠塞問題將更為嚴重。

請參與我們的網上聯署

就這次大綱圖的修訂,我有以下分析及建議:
  1. 反對數碼港5期的樓宇高度。新大樓應較現有商場為低。
  2. 反對將停車場及連接路設於地面,應全放入地庫。
  3. 支持將數碼港的海濱正式劃為休憩用地。
  4. 要求提供改善海濱公園的具體方案及財務預算。
  5. 反對於大口環興建另一所學校(基於交通理由)。
  6. 要求落實大口環海濱長廊。
  7. 支持刪除沿海的7號幹線。
  8. 支持註明薄扶林沿岸地段為海濱長廊。
  9. 修訂道路改善方案。
你可以透過我們的網上聯署發表意見。截止日期為11月27日。如有查詢或意見,歡迎電郵我們:info@paulzimmerman.hk。

Survey: Cyberport Expansion 數碼港擴建計劃 - 網上問卷

26/2/2019

Now we know why the Innovation and Technology Bureau objected to the community proposal for a sports pitch near the Arcade (Newsletter Nov 2017)!

The Financial Secretary has set aside HK$5.5billion in his 2019 Budget to expand Cyberport’s facilities:

“I will earmark $5.5 billion for the development of Cyberport 5.  This will serve to attract more quality technology companies and start-ups to set up their offices in Cyberport and provide a pathway for young people to pursue a career in I&T.  The expansion project is expected to provide about 66 000 square metres of floor area, and include facilities such as offices, co-working space, conference venues and data service platforms.  We will proceed with the statutory town planning procedures with a view to commencing construction in 2021 for completion in 2024 at the earliest.”

This is a significant increase. The existing Cyberport 1 - 4 is 92,000 square metres. The plan received shows that Cyberport 5 will be located in front of the Cyberport Arcade. 
News reports show the site as 1.6 hectare and a proposed building height of 11 storeys. The hotel is 13 storeys. 

In Cyberport’s press release (click here) it is promised that “Cyberport will carry out a series of work to improve the environment and facilities of the existing waterfront park.”


I have asked Cyberport to release detailed plans for public consultation soon. 
​
What do you think? Do you support or object to the plans, or want more information first? 


Should government use the expansion to also resolve previous requests from residents (see below). Should anything else be dealt with?
Let me know - Online survey
我們於2017年11月的薄扶林報告中,提到創新及科技局以希望預留土地擴建數碼港為由,反對於海濱公園興建球場,今日謎底終於解開。

財政司司長於今日的財政預算案中宣佈:「我會預留五十五億元用作發展數碼港第五期,以吸納更多具實力的科技公司和初創企業進駐,也為年輕人提供投身創科界的途徑。擴建項目預計可提供約六萬六千平方米樓面面積,以及包括辦公室、共用工作間、會議場地及數據服務平台等設施。我們會着手進行法定城市規劃程序,以期項目可以在二零二一年動工,預計最快於二零二四年竣工。」

擴建規模頗大,現在數碼港 1至4 座總樓面面積為九萬二千平方米。我們收到的資料顯示數碼港五座選址為商場前方的公園部份,建築物前面將預留空間設置海濱長廊。

綜合多份新聞報導,數碼港五座將佔地1.6公頃,樓高11層(艾美酒店為樓高13層)。


數碼港於新聞稿中提到:「數碼港亦會進行一系列改善工程優化現行海濱公園的環境及設施。」

​我們已聯絡數碼港,希望他們能盡快發放擴建計劃的詳情,以便進行公眾諮詢。

你對擴建計劃有什麼意見?政府應否藉今次機會落實過往多年來居民的訴求?趁着擴建計劃,
政府應否落實過往多年來居民的訴求?你又希望政府及數碼港一併改善哪些設施?  
網上問卷 - 分享你的想法

Requests from residents put to Cyberport in the past
居民曾反映希望能落實以下改善措施及工程

Improve Public Transport
​改善公共交通服務​

Any expansion should be supported with adequate public transport.
政府需要改善公共交通服務以應付擴建後的需求。

Picture

Improve Retail And Dining Experience
改善商場的零售及餐飲種類和選擇​

New e-sports and ‘smart’ entertainment is one thing, but residents also asked for a pharmacy, easy access to an ATM, a convenience store and more F&B choices.
​除了電競及智能家居的產品,居民希望商場能引入藥房、便利店及其他餐飲選擇,並在商場外加設自動櫃員機。

Waterfront Park Facilities ​
海濱公園設施

More kids play equipment (swing, slide, playhouses and merry-go-round), trees, shaded seating, water dispensers, access to toilets and a kennel ‘to park a dog’ when visiting the Arcade. 
加設更多兒童遊樂設施(例如千秋、瀡滑梯、氹氹轉)、樹木、有遮蔭的長櫈、飲水機、洗手間和暫放狗隻的地方以便狗主進入商場。
Picture

Waterfront Park maintenance 
​海濱公園管理及保養

The park is cherished for its liberal policy on dogs, kids on scooters, and kite flying. This requires active management, dog latrines, and a dedicated corner for small kids to enjoy the grass free of dogs. A water sprinkler is needed for the dry season, as well as regular cleaning and faster repairs.

​​改善公園的管理:加裝狗廁所並設立無狗隻的兒童玩樂區;安裝自動灑水器以改善旱季時草地的質素、同時更頻密地剪草;改善保養及維修效率等。

Cyberport Parking Arrangements 數碼港泊車安排

5/2/2015

 
Picture
After escalating concerns over parking at the cinema and supermarket to the Board of Cyberport, we have been informed as follows:
  1. The lay-bys at the supermarket and cinema are private Emergency Vehicle Access roads which need to be kept clear and parking meters are not feasible.
  2. Cyberport understands residents’ desire to “nip in”. However, the previous 15 minutes parking led to disagreements between security staff and drivers.
  3. To enhance the situation, Cyberport has decided as follows:
    a) Free parking without spending will be 30 minutes (previously 20 minutes) effective 16 February 2015.
    b) Free parking of 1 and 2 hours with a spending of HK$100 and HK$200 will remain unchanged.
    c) (Un)loading and drop-off/pick up only at the two laybys. Drivers can wait only if no one needs to pass through.
    d) New cones, planters and outdoor seating will be installed to improve the outlook of the area.
    e) Goods handling by retailers will be restricted and alternatives are being studied. 

In the meantime, Transport Department has circulated plans to extend the no-stopping zones to cover the bus stops to improve road safety. 
------------------------------

早前我們去信數碼港董事局反映居民對數碼港商場泊車的問題,以下是他們的回應及將會採取的措施:
  1. 商場及戲院旁邊的避車處為私人範圍內的緊急通道。為了保持通道暢通,他們未能提供泊車咪錶位。
  2. 數碼港明白居民希望能短暫停泊於避車處以便進入店舖購買東西,但早前的15分鐘短暫停泊安排多次導致保安人員和司機出現爭拗。
  3. 為了改善情況,數碼港決定採取以下措施:
    a) 停車場免費泊車(不需消費單據)的時間將由原有的20分鐘增加至30分鐘,生效日期為2015年2月16日。
    b) 現有的1小時及2小時免費泊車(消費滿$100及$200)將維持不變。
    c) 商場及戲院旁邊的避車處只供上落客及貨物。車輛可於後面沒有車輛離開及司機在座的情況下短暫停留。
    d) 為了美化環境,數碼港會安裝新的雪糕筒、花槽及戶外檯凳。
    e) 當局正在研究其他方案,避免商店使用避車處上落貨。

另外,運輸署已就延長雙黃線覆蓋巴士站的計劃諮詢社區。
