Soon the Kowloon Central Route highway will be gazetted. The images show what a disaster the road engineers are creating for Kai Tak. The channel in Kai Tak has the same proportions as Marina Bay in Singapore and Darling Harbour in Sydney. See for yourself how Hong Kong is wasting a world class opportunity..

• The planning of Kai Tak is a disaster.
• Where Singapore and Sydney have used similar water bodies
to create world class destinations we excel in creating
nothing out of our 10km waterfront.
• One of the problems is the Central Kowloon Route. It will be
gazetted soon and unfortunately we will all have to object.
• We can’t let the road engineers destroy Kai Tak in the same
way they have destroyed the Kowloon West Reclamation.
