Planning Concept
HSK/HT NDA (Figure 29) will be the latest generation New Town of Hong Kong. It has adhered to the
planning principles to build a sustainable, people-oriented and balanced living, working and business
community, and to create a Regional Economic and Civic Hub for the NWNT. To create a distinctive
townscape character and develop a coherent and legible urban structure, key activity nodes and
residential communities of different intensities are planned with regard to the existing context and
landscape resources, including the surrounding green backdrop of Yuen Tau Shan and the natural and
rural environment of Deep Bay and Lau Fau Shan to the west and north, and the built up area to the east
and south, as well as the TSW Drainage Channel that runs through the NDA as a spine.
