Project Background


Hong Kong is an international metropolis and comprises many natural scenic spots, rare geological features and hiking trails with rich biological diversity. In recent years, number of tourists attracted to remote rural areas has been constantly increasing. Public piers play an important role in accessing these remote destinations.

Civil Engineering and Development Department (CEDD) commissioned an Engineering Feasibility Study (EFS), “Study for Pier Improvement Programme at Leung Shuen Wan, Kau Sai Village, Lai Chi Chong, Sham Chung and Sam Mun Tsai – Investigation” (Agreement No. CE 33/2017 (CE)), in November 2017 to verify the technical feasibility of improving five potential pier items located in the northeast region of Hong Kong.
