“Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030”
– New Impetus and Dimension for Sustainable Growth
“Hong Kong 2030+: Towards a Planning Vision and Strategy Transcending 2030” (“Hong Kong
2030+”) provides a strategic spatial planning framework for the future planning, land and
infrastructure development as well as the shaping of the built and natural environment of Hong
Kong beyond 2030. It has taken into account the global mega-trends, evolving local context
and issues as well as the latest national and regional policy directives including the National
14th Five-Year Plan and the Greater Bay Area (GBA) development. The strategy is vision-
oriented and places emphasis on three major interconnected building blocks, namely creating
capacity to enhance liveability, embracing new economic opportunities and challenges, as well
as creating capacity for sustainable growth. The conceptual spatial framework has identified
“two metropolises” and “two development axes” with a view to enabling Hong Kong to integrate
with the development in Mainland China. To bolster Hong Kong’s strategic location and key
role to strengthen the international competitive edge of the GBA, “Hong Kong 2030+” promotes
enhanced connectivity and functional integration with our neighbouring cities.
