2. Pedestrian-friendly Movement Network

A comfortable and enjoyable pedestrian environment is important to

encourage journeys on foot and public transport usage, which can promote
sustainability and health and wellness throughout the city. Hong Kong’s
compact and high-density urban form, well-established transit-oriented

development network and close proximity to blue and green assets are all

conducive to creating a walkable city. The relevant guidelines include:
(i) Support Sustainable Transport Modes;

(ii) Promote Walkability; and

(iii) Create Efficient Multi-layered Connections.
