Hong Kong receives 16 expressions of interest for Hung Shui Ha logistics park
The Hong Kong government has received 16 expressions of interest for the first five parcels of land in the Hung Shui Ha/Tsuen Wan New Development Area's modern logistics park. The park, covering about 32 hectares, aims to support high-value, smart and green logistics services.
The Hong Kong government has received 16 expressions of interest for the first five land parcels in the planned modern logistics park in the Hung Shui Ha/Tsuen Wan New Development Area, part of the Northern Territories development. The Transport and Logistics Bureau said on 13 November that the response will help gauge market interest and gather industry views on development terms, infrastructure requirements and land sales arrangements.
The logistics park, spanning about 32 hectares, is strategically located in the western part of the Northern Territories, near the Shenzhen Bay port and with convenient connections to Hong Kong International Airport and the Kwai Tsing container terminals. The government said the park will be developed on a “business-led” principle, bringing together logistics firms and related support services to promote modern, high-value, smart and green logistics.
A spokesman for the Transport and Logistics Bureau said: “By collecting expressions of interest, we can better understand the industry’s intentions regarding the selected parcels, as well as their views on proposed development terms, infrastructure requirements, development plans, land disposal methods, financial feasibility, preliminary development details and implementation timelines. We will analyse the expressions of interest to finalise the development requirements and land sale arrangements, and to prepare the relevant tender documents.”
The spokesman added: “The government will continue to advance the development of the Hung Shui Ha logistics park to support modern, high-value, smart and green logistics services, as well as the development of the Northern Territories. We expect that the first land parcels could be available for tender by the end of 2027, with the aim of awarding the relevant tenders in 2028. We will take into account the views from the expressions of interest when considering the schedule and arrangements to ensure the park’s development aligns with market demand and the long-term needs of the logistics industry.”
The government had reserved the land for the logistics park to meet the long-term space needs of the logistics sector and to reinforce Hong Kong’s position as an international logistics hub.
