Chapter 571 Opening of Hung Hom Cross Harbor Tunnel
As the core port of Hong Kong in the future, Kwai Chung has taken shape now, and then it will be in line with the self -development.
On April 22, another large -scale infrastructure in Hong Kong society: the Red Embroidered Underwater Tunnel, successfully completed, and passed the safety review of international third -party institutions. The Hong Kong government also decided to officially open to traffic on this day.
For Hong Kong society, the role of the Red Embroidered Underwater Tunnel is no lower than that of Kwai Chung Wharf, and even for ordinary people, this tunnel is more convenient.
In previous years, the only way to go back and forth between Central and Kowloon was by ship. Whether it was a car or a person, you had to wait for a long time. When encountering bad weather or summer exposure, it can literally take off a layer of skin;
Now that there is a tunnel, just go to the other side and drive normally.
The opening ceremony of the tunnel was held on the side of Hong Kong Island. Dozens of ghost officials including Dai Lin to Toilet and Governor of Hong Kong Governor Dai Lin to the scene came to the scene. ;
Media reporters from various newspapers and camera teams from TVB and ATV also rushed over. This was also a major event that affected the history of Hong Kong.
As a group of reporters, everyone naturally came earlier. Before the main character arrived, many reporters were chatting away:
"The tolls in this tunnel are really expensive. It costs 3 yuan for bicycles, motorcycles and tricycles to pass through, and 5 yuan for cars. The tolls are very expensive."
The charging price of the Hongli Tunnel has been announced for a long time. Although it is a private investment project, it is also a public infrastructure. In many ways, it is supervised by the Hong Kong government and the society;
Similarly, there are electricity bills, bus fares, etc. Even if they are controlled by consortiums, the prices are generally not what they want. There is no monopoly law in Hong Kong, but the government also has controls. Otherwise, capital can control all kinds of basic living expenses. Energy prices have skyrocketed;
However, it is basically guaranteed that the consortium behind it will have considerable interests, and there will be a balance between both parties and the Hong Kong government.
Another reporter said: "It looks more expensive than the stars, which is convenient. The total length is less than 2km. If you do not traffic jam, you can drive for a few minutes. If you wait for the ferry, sometimes it’ s two hours. I have done it too, which one can you choose? "
"I also choose the tunnel, unless it is too far from the red cricket." The reporter replied;
Tunnels or bridges are the most time -saving time, but the disadvantage is that the location is fixed. Unlike ships can be arranged at will. If it is too far, it is not as good as the ferry.
"It's okay for cars, but it's troublesome if people can't pass. If people can pass, it will be quite fast to walk 2 kilometers."
The Hongli Tunnel does not allow pedestrians to pass through, which has been clearly clarified more than two years ago.
"How can you allow pedestrians to pass? It would be very troublesome to charge for pedestrian passage. Many people may not pay, and it will cause chaos."
"It's not just about money, it's also about safety. The tunnel itself is dark and there are a lot of people. If they cross the road and get into a car accident, it will be dangerous if the tunnel is blocked. A car accident and a fire in the tunnel are the most terrifying thing. ”
"Yes, tunnels in other countries are also closed to pedestrians."
Many reporters and even many people who come to eat melon are chatting;
The time has entered ten o'clock in the morning, and the opening ceremony of the Hung Hom Tunnel has officially begun;
"Mr. Hong Kong, let's go on stage to cut the ribbon together?" Yang Wendong said with a smile to Dai Lin toe.
Many large -scale events in Hong Kong have ribbon -cutting, and even the same in the Mainland in the future. Generally, people with exciting people are the most distinguished people, or the project owner or the government is high -level; High -level, like this ribbon today, it is going to be on TV and newspapers, and even newspaper photos may be retained, stored in the library, or pictures of other books, and so on.
If such an honorary Hong Kong Governor does not come, it will naturally belong to Yang Wendong. When the Hong Kong Governor comes, it will be given to him. After all, this Hong Kong Governor is about to leave Hong Kong. Like his predecessor, Bai Liji, he wants to do more things and be able to stay in Hong Kong. It has left its name in history.
Dai Lin's toe laughed: "Okay, thank you for Yang Sheng."
"Mr. Hong Kong Governor is polite." Yang Wendong smiled.
Under the command of the emcee, many people came to their seats, and a reporter also conducted interviews. The Hong Kong Governor and Yang Wendong both responded to questions. This interview was also prepared in advance. The opening of such a large-scale project must have some content. It's in the newspaper, so the officials will arrange everything in advance.
Immediately, under the attention of the Eye, reporter, and shooting team, Dai Lin, the governor of Hong Kong, cut off the red belt, with thousands of sorbe balloons next to it. A long cloth, which says some celebrate Chinese and so on.
Many reporters are also carefully capturing this scene;
On the other side, as the ribbon-cutting ended, the Hung Hom Cross-Harbour Tunnel was officially opened to traffic. Many cars that had been waiting for a long time entered the toll station first;
When you go in, you do n’t need to register. Go directly in and wait for the charges when you come out. This is the case whether it is cars, buses, motorcycles or tricycles;
However, trucks need to be weighed, because it is charged according to quality, and it is also necessary to avoid the overweight, width, or other dangerous supplies of the truck, or there are other dangerous supplies to avoid their threats to public safety.
There are 12 toll stations on both sides of the Hongli Tunnel. The front and back roads of the toll station are also very spacious. This also avoids traffic jams;
But the first day of opening, plus the previous advertising effect is relatively strong, it is estimated that many people also want to come to see. For car people, a few dollars are not enough to play;
Many traffic police have been mobilized for a long time, and now they maintain order on both sides; even in the middle of the tunnel, there are a few positions. There are traffic police and some special emergency supplies, such as fire protection, medical care, food, etc. to avoid special emergencies to avoid special emergencies Condition.
Dai Linzhi and Yang Wendong came to a 6 -story building next to the tunnel. You can see the charging port below across the window. Under the deliberate arrangement, everyone else left, leaving only two.
Dai Linzhong laughed: "Yang Sheng, now the Hongli Tunnel has been opened to traffic, and finally completed a major event in Hong Kong people."
"Yeah, with this tunnel, the Hong Kong people are more convenient." Yang Wendong nodded.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
Although the tunnel is collected, just like the highway, it is cost -effective for most people, even if the charge is cost -effective; and if you really do n’t want to pay, there are still a stars. You can do other choices.
Historically, although the tunnel was started during Dai Linzhi's term, it was actually completed after MacLehose came to power, even at the port terminal;
Now because of Yang Wendong's existence, he naturally promoted a lot of things in advance. This can also be regarded as taking care of Dai Lin tola as the governor of Hong Kong.
Dai Lin's toe nodded: "Yes, there is Yang Sheng's primary and library. The speed of construction is fast, which surprises me."
"Of course I would be happy to build more schools for Hong Kong." Yang Wendong also said.
Rich people in ancient times knew that building roads and schools in Puqiao would benefit the countryside, and Yang Wendong naturally did the same. It was cost-effective from any angle.
Dai Linzhi said: "That's good. Regarding the 460,000-square-foot industrial land transfer applied for by Changxing Real Estate in the early stage, I have already agreed. In terms of floor area ratio, it is the highest in the area. I only need to submit it to the Land Department for approval. Usually they just go through the process and there won’t be any problems.”
"Okay, thank you Mr. Hong Kong Governor." Yang Wendong said with great satisfaction.
This transaction is to make Dai Linye's achievements before the education level, and the fair transaction in exchange is to conduct some local work transferrs;
The money he should make up will not be less than the Hong Kong government. The Hong Kong governor is just using his legal rights to increase the floor area ratio.
