Traffic changes at Bel-Air Phase 4-6​ 貝沙灣四/六期對出的道路設計改動

25/5/2020

 
Picture

To improve traffic along Cyberport Road near Bel-Air Phase 4 – 6, Transport Department will make the following changes:
  • Lane markings will change to allow vehicles to overtake at bus stops on both sides. (yellow and blue lines)
  • Vehicles will no longer wait behind buses and minibuses at the uphill bus stop. (left)
  • The downhill minibus stop will stay as passengers wait here for 58 and 58M. Vehicles will not be able to overtake. This addresses comments received on the previous proposal.
  • Buses will stop higher up the downhill lane and passengers will have to walk a little further to reach home.
The changes are expected to improve traffic flow for everyone’s benefit. The changes have been agreed to by the Bel-Air Owners Committee. The consultation ends on 9 June 2020.

為改善數碼港道近貝沙灣四/六期一段的交通流,運輸署建議:

  • 容許上山方向的車輛爬越停站中的巴士及小巴(黃線)
  • 因應居民於上一次諮詢時表示希望能於同一小巴站同時等待58及58M,落山方向的小巴站位置將維持不變,駕駛者需等待小巴上落客。
  • 將落山方向巴士站向上移(紅線),乘客落車後需要行走的路程有輕微增加。 落山方向的車輛可爬越停站中的巴士(藍線)。

整體交通流的改善將令大家得益。貝沙灣業主委員會亦已同意相關方案。公眾諮詢的截止日期為2020年6月9日。

Road safety at Sandy Bay 大口環道路安全

7/6/2018

 
Picture
A recent video on Facebook shows a vehicle overtaking another vehicle endangering pedestrians on the crossing at Sandy Bay Road. We have reminded the Transport Department of our request for measures to slow down the traffic and to deter overtaking at the zebra crossings. Note that speed tables are not a standard practice in Hong Kong when a road is used by public transport. We hope to change that before someone gets badly hurt.

最近有網民於Facebook上載了一條影片,片中一名司機於大口環道的斑馬線高速逆線扒頭,差一點演變成嚴重交通意外。我們已趁機去信運輸署,再次要求署方研究如何減低此路段的車速及阻止司機於斑馬線逆線扒頭。署方早前已表示他們於一般情況下不會於有公共交通工具行駛的道路上設置路拱或減速平台,我們希望運輸署能改變思維,保障行人的安全。

Illegal road racing 非法賽車

22/4/2018

Complaints over road racing have been on the rise again. Detailed reports from residents and property managers indicating day, time, road section and direction were lodged with the Police. The black spots included Victoria Road and Pok Fu Lam Road. In response  police conducted a series of operations last week and detained over 17 vehicles suspected of illegal modifications and issued over 200 speeding tickets. The officer in charge of the operation confirmed that operations are continuing. You can send your detailed reports, video and photographs of races to info@paulzimmerman.hk

投訴非法賽車及其噪音滋擾問題的數字早前有上升趨勢,我們有將居民及管理公司提供的情報轉交警方,包括時間、路段及方向等,域多利道及薄扶林道均為區內的黑點。警方於上週末採取了一連串打擊非法賽車的行動,於港島區共扣留了超過17架車,涉嫌非法改裝及賽車,並發出200張超速告票。警方表示行動會繼續。如有任何情報,歡迎電郵我們:

Octopus for Tunnels 用八達通過隧道

17/3/2017

 
Picture
Following our campaign to speed up the implementation of electronic payment at tunnels, we have been informed that these facilities will be installed at seven government tunnels starting 2017, with Aberdeen Tunnel and Cross Harbour Tunnel early 2018; and the Eastern Harbour Crossing early 2019. We have now written separately to the private operator of the Western Tunnel Crossing asking them to commit to the provision of e-payment services.


我們上年發起聯署行動要求政府加快步伐於收費隧道安裝電子收費系統(例如八達通)。最近當局宣佈7條政府收費隧道將於今年起分階段提供電子收費服務:香港仔隧道及紅隧-2018年初;東隧-2019初。我已向西隧的營運商要求他們效仿政府做法盡快提供電子收費服務。

Proposal for Cyberport Road near Bel-Air Phase 4-6 數碼港道建議(近貝沙灣4-6期)

18/2/2017

 
Picture
[Updated on 16 March 2017]
​While drivers have responded positively to the proposal to move the bus stop, we have collected many views from the bus passengers that the proposed location is inconvenient, and importantly that it can’t be combined with the 58M stop. 

我們就將「落山方向的巴士站向上移,從而提供足夠的路面空間供上山及落山方向的車輛爬越停站的巴士」的建議諮詢居民意見,當中不少駕駛人士表示支持,但是亦有很多乘坐公共交通的居民表示位置不方便以及他們希望能於同一個站等候58M小巴
。

​We are now liaising with the Bel-Air Owners Committee on the proposal for Government to construct a lay-by. This would involve more cost and time.  In case a relocation of the bus stop is required for the works, it would be temporary.

我們正在與貝沙灣業委會溝通,了解他們對改建現有巴士站成為一個具凹位的巴士站的意見。當然,此工程會需要額外公帑及時間,而施工期間有可能需要將巴士站臨時重置。

Roadside convex mirrors 路邊魚眼鏡

2/6/2016

 
​Government will not install roadside convex mirrors. The Transport Department's stance is (correctly) that these mirrors distort images and make it difficult to judge travelling speed. They do not support the use along public roads. The mirrors you do see are installed 'unofficially' by property owners and managers to improve sightlines.

I took the liberty of installing a mirror at the junction of Bisney Road and Crown Terrace because the visibility is blocked, the travelling speeds are low, there was a pole available and splitting the responsibility between different buildings would be cumbersome.

I’m aware that some residents of Upper Baguio want to put one at their junction with Victoria Road. They need to consider that there is no obvious hanging point.

運輸署認為路邊魚眼鏡會令影像變形及難以判斷路面車速,所以官方不會於公共道路上安裝魚眼鏡。而閣下於路面見到的魚眼鏡均為私人屋苑或其管理公司「偷雞地」安裝。

由於駕駛者視線嚴重及附近屋苑眾多(難以協調由誰安裝),我最近於碧荔道及冠冕臺交界安裝了一塊魚眼鏡。此處的車速相對比較低,而路口位亦剛好有一條柱以便安裝。

我明白有眾多上碧瑤居民希望能於域多利道路口安裝魚眼鏡,但是該路口不幸地沒有路牌柱或燈柱。

Online Survey: Electronic Road Pricing 意見調查:電子道路收費

Online survey Findings 網上意見調查報告

意見調查日期 Survey period
29/2/2016 - 15/3/2016

135 responses were received. 期間共收到135份回覆。

--------------------

Thank you for completing our survey on Electronic Road Pricing.

The Pokfulam community appears evenly split: 45.9% of the respondents supported the scheme whilst 48.2% opposed.
 
We submitted the findings to Government and pointed out that there are significant concerns over the service levels of the bus and minibus services Pokfulam relies without an MTR.
 
As a result residents continue to use private transport and are concerned over the impact electronic road pricing might have.

首先感謝大家早前參與我們的「電子道路收費」網上意見調查。

調查結果顯示薄扶林居民對計劃的支持度與反對度相若:45.9%的受訪者對計劃表示支持,48.2%的受訪者對計劃表示反對。

我們已向政府遞交調查報告,並指出薄扶林區尚未有港鐵服務連接,而區內小巴及巴士服務班次不穩定。居民因此而選擇利用私家車代步,對「電子道路收費」計劃所帶來的影響表示擔憂。

Online Survey: Electronic Road Pricing 意見調查:電子道路收費 March 2016
[17 March 2016]

The government is consulting the public on its proposed pilot scheme for electronic road pricing in Central. (Click here for the public engagement document).
 
The deadline for comments is 18 March 2016.

Do you support the proposal? Object? Any views on the details? You can write to Government directly, or take part in my online survey (link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GX9WDJM). My office will consolidate and report the Pokfulam responses to the government.

In the meantime, below please find my personal view as published in Southside magazine – in short I propose there is no charging for the use of Connaught/Gloucester Road Corridor, but for the use of the inner areas only. 

Let me know your views.


政府正就中環電子道路收費先導計劃進行公眾諮詢。公眾諮詢截止日期為2016年3月18日。
諮詢文件:連結

你支持或反對道路收費計劃?你可直接向政府發表意見,或參與我們的網上意見調查(連結:https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/GX9WDJM)。我們會整合意見並向政府反映薄扶林居民的睇法。

我早前於Southside雜誌的專欄發表了我的個人意見。簡單而言,我建議干諾道及告士打道不設收費,收費區應設於中環的內街。

歡迎發表意見。
