Area Assessment : The Tai Wai industrial area is located near East Rail Tai Wai Station. It is separated from the nearest residential developments by Shing Mun River Channel, railway tracks, and major roads including Road T3. Most of the floor space in the area (nearly 47%) is still used for warehouse/storage, though the figure is much lower than that of the Area Assessments 2005. Manufacturing/workshop and office uses constitute about 18.8% and 10.4% of the floor space respectively. The current vacancy rate is only 2.7% which is much lower than that of the whole territory, the Northeast New Territories and the Area Assessments 2005. About 12.9% of the floor space was under renovation during the survey period, mainly involving one of the eight industrial buildings. All the industrial buildings were completed in the 1980s and are in fair conditions. Since there are active and established industrial uses in the area, the area should be retained for industrial use. Recommendation : To retain as “I”.
