The East Rail Line (the former Kowloon Canton Railway - British Section) operates domestic as well as cross-boundary passenger services to the mainland boundary at Lo Wu. From the new East Tsim Sha Tsui terminus to Lo Wu Station, the East Rail Line covers a distance of 35 kilometres with a total of 14 stations, including a Racecourse Station open on race days.

The East Rail Line has embarked on a major expansion programme. The extension to Tsim Sha Tsui was commissioned in October 2004, while Ma On Shan Line came into service in December 2004. The works for the spur line running from Sheung Shui to Lok Ma Chau are well underway. These new rail links and extensions will make travelling between the North East New Territories and the urban areas much easier, and will provide another direct link to the Mainland.

Incorporation of developments within the key railway infrastructure is considered to be of paramount importance in land use planning terms due to the significant traffic and environmental benefits involved. Property development opportunities along East Rail were identified as part of the planning of the railway development by MTRC.

MVA was commissioned by MTRC as the traffic consultancy to carry out a series of traffic related study to the potential developments along East Rail. The consultancy services covered a wide range of traffic studies including:

The importance of physical activity advocacy to improve physical and psychological health in the community has gained greater prominence in recent years. Despite thisdevelopment, there remains a high prevalence of sedentariness inindustralised countries. According to the estimate from the World Health Organization (WHO), physical inactivity causes 2 million deaths in a year. At least 60% of the global population fails to achieve 30 minutes moderate physical activity daily.In Hong Kong, a survey commissioned by the Department of Health (DH) in 1999 revealed that only 47.7% of the

respondents had engaged in some form of exercise in the monthpreceding the survey. The Population Health Survey in 2003/04 estimated that 33.3% of the Hong Kongpopulation aged 15-64 were physically inactive.

Against the above backdrop, public health authorities are endeavoring to arouse public interests in doing exercise. WHO and Governments of different countries are currently advocating the incorporation of physical activity into everyday lives in which the concept of active living is developed. Encouraging the public to use "stairs

instead of elevators" is beingpromulgated based on the fact that stair climbing is a convenient and easily accessible exercise, which can be performed regularly and does not require special training.

In this connection, DH commissioned MVA Hong Kong Ltd (MVA) to conduct an observational study (the Study) to assess the effectiveness of employing the Point-of-Decision Prompt (PDP) intervention in venues managed by the Leisure and Cultural ServicesDepartment (LCSD).

Objectives of the StudyTo observe if there is any significant increase in the proportion of visitors who use the stairs in the venues managed by LCSD 1 day and 3 weeks after the PDP intervention was implemented.

To observe if there is any significant increase in the proportion of visitors who use stairs in the venues managed by LCSD in different genders (male or female), directions of travel (upstairs or downstairs) and days of travel (weekday or weekend) after the PDP intervention was implemented.

The Tsing Ma Control Area (TMCA) covers about 21km of road network and is a transport infrastructure for access to the Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok and the North West New Territories. It comprises a system of expressways, tunnel and bridges, these includes Tsing Kwai Highway, Cheung Tsing Tunnel, Cheung Tsing Highway, Tsing Yi North Coastal Road, Ting Kau Bridge, Lantau Link, Ma Wan Road and part of the North Lantau Highway (up to Yam O Interchange).The TMCA is an important transport node for access to the Hong Kong International Airport at Chek Lap Kok and the North West New Territories. Under the high wind conditions, wind susceptible vehicles are prohibited from using the upper deck of the Lantau Link and Ting Kau Bridge. With the imple-mentation of this high wind manage-ment scheme, congestion often resulted on Tuen Mun Road and Cheung Tsing Highway. As the traffic flows on Tsing Ma Bridge are expected to increase with on-going develop-ments on Lantau, it is necessary to review the high wind management measures with a view to minimizing disruption to traffic flows on these strategic links while maintaining traffic safety in TMCA.MVA Hong Kong Limited (MVA) in association with BMT Fluid Mechanics Ltd. (BMT) were commissioned by Transport Department to undertake the review of high wind management in TMCA. The progress of the study was directed by Working Group under the chairmanship of the Principal Transport Officer for Transport Department.

The main objectives of the study were as follows:

Provide a full review of the current TMCA wind management system and its' implementation in high winds with reference to the best international industry practice with a view to minimise disruption to traffic flows.Provide proposals for amendments to the current wind management system as appropriate.

Provide a review of the definition and categorisation of windsusceptible vehicles inherent in the current TMCA wind management system with reference to best international industry practice.Provide a review of the threshold wind speeds that trigger the different stages of the current TMCA wind management system with reference to best international industry practice.Provide a review of the lane and vehicle speed restrictions imposed when the TMCA wind management system becomes active in high winds.Provide a review of the effectiveness of the current TMCA windmanagement system.Provide proposals for improvement of the system and derive anassessment of the potential for these measures to reduce disruption to traffic flows.Provide a review of the existing traffic management scheme and provide proposals for improving the current traffic managementarrangement.The following major findings / recommendations were proposed :Wind Speed (HAWS) recorded on either TKB and LL triggered bridge closure revised from 65 kph to 90 kph;Definition of WSVs proposed to be revised;Erection of new information signs to speed up vehicle screening process; Implementation of bridge closure for LL and TKB separately;High wind management scheme is proposed to be carried in 3 stages under Do-Nothing, Short-term and Long-term Recommendation.

Xiqu Centre DesignMVA is supporting various shortlisted Bidders, hoping to implement appropriate traffic measures in order to facilitate both the development and operational processes of the Centre. The aim is to develop a master plan for the Eastern Entrance to the WKCD, as well as a building concept for the Xiqu Centre. These designs will be developed within the overarching WKCD Master Plan with assurance they are buildable and cost-effective.

Develop a traffic-free, pedestrian prioritised, natural, and built landscape extending the planning directions embodied by the plans for Express Rail Link - West Kowloon Terminus and West Kowloon Reclamation Area. That is, road traffic is to be put underground or depressed so pedestrians have full priority at the surface.

Develop a Integrated Transport Plan with an overriding goal to provide “Mobility for All” for a 40 hectares waterfront Cultural District.

Development Plan Submission.

The Xiqu Centre will be the first of seventeen core arts and cultural venues to be opened within the WKCD.

Situated along the corner of Canton Road and Austin Road West, the Xiqu Centre will act as a gateway of access to the Cultural District.


MVA has been operating in Asia via its regional head office in Hong Kong since 1978, providing local and international experience and knowledge in transportation, planning and management consultancy. MVA also operates through regional offices in Mainland China, India, Singapore and Thailand; and project offices in many other countries. MVA is able to draw on the resources of the international MVA Group, formed in 1968, which is part of Systra Group, one of the largest transport and engineering consultancy organisations in the world.

Detailed Design for West Kowloon TerminusMVA is involved in expanding the corridor to include the West Kowloon Terminal, for the future High Speed Rail to Mainland China. WKT is the centrepiece of a transport hub formed by HSR, Airport Railway, Metro, Ferry and road-based transport set in a continuous traffic free pedestrian zone extending 80 hectares in West Kowloon.

Express Rail Link Consultancy MTRCL Agreement No. C801 - Detailed Design for West Kowloon Terminus (WKT)

The future Express Rail Link (XRL) links the West Kowloon terminus (WKT) with the Mainland High Speed Rail network in Shenzhen, with direct services to key Mainland Cities. WKT is at the heart of West Kowloon and forms aninternational, cross boundary andHKSAR inter-modal hub.

MVA is responsible for the high speed rail terminus traffic and transport planning related designs. This includes the internal passenger-related facilities sizing and planning (including the HK & Mainland CIQ for arrival and departure passengers), connectivity within adjacent major developments; external road network, Public Transport Interchange, internal station traffic, Temporary Traffic management during construction; topside propertydevelopment, MLP study and so on.

The LEGION model adopted a minute by minute queuing analysis through the in-flow & out-flow at e-channel / counters as well as the maximum queuing times to determine the required numbers of e-channel and counters during peak hours.

The model was used to optimise the passenger flow and match the facilities to provide a cost-effective yet world-class station.

MVA has supported MTRCL with the XRL/WKT scheme over many years covering the initial forecasts, business case development, and government approval and funding process. We have provided detailed technical assessments of station sizing and facility provision for refinement of the internal and external operations.

For the facilities planning & sizing, MVA has undertaken the whole process from strategic forecasting through to detailed stationsimulation modelling.
