To Kwa Wan Road/Wing Kwong Street Project (KC-016)
The project was commenced in March 2021 and the planning procedure is underway. Consultation with the Kowloon City District Council was held in April 2021 with no objection received. KC-016 is expected to create synergy with seven URA ongoing redevelopment projects launched in the vicinity under the district-based approach to achieve a holistic planning for the district, thereby creating more benefits in terms of connectivity and walkability for the community.
Other Ongoing Projects of Note
Projects under the District-based and Integrated approach in Kowloon City
The URA has, since 2015, adopted a district-based and integrated approach to the urban renewal process in order to secure greater planning and social gains for the wider community. The projects launched under the district- based approach in Kowloon City are: Bailey Street/Wing Kwong Street Project (KC-009), Hung Fook Street/ Ngan Hon Street Project (KC-010), Hung Fook Street/Kai Ming Street Project (KC-011), Wing Kwong Street Project (KC-012), Kai Ming Street/Wing Kwong Street Project (KC-013) and Wing Kwong Street/
Sung On Street Project (KC-014).
Extent of district-based development
Green pedestrian way and shopping avenue
Underground public carpark
Proposed footbridge connecting to
To Kwa Wan MTR Station
These six projects, together with the cleared Demand-led Scheme project at Kai Ming Street (DL-8), have formed a cluster of projects in the Kowloon City Action Area covering a total site area of more than two hectares and involving about 2,700 households. One of the main objectives of the holistic urban renewal approach in this Action Area is to create a walkable neighbourhood with good accessibility, connectivity and vibrancy for the community at large through the provision of underground communal/public carparks and road network restructuring.
Reversions of unacquired property interests in KC-009, KC-010, KC-011, KC-012 and KC-013 to the Government took place in December 2019. The site clearance of KC-009, KC-012 and KC-013 was completed, while final clearance works of KC-010 and KC-011 are underway. The Lands Department is currently processing land grants of six projects from KC-009 to KC-013 and DL-8. For KC-014, reversions took place in May 2021 and site clearance is in progress.
