Tung Chung Traction Substation
To take forward MTRCL’s proposal for residential development at the existing Tung Chung Traction
Substation and its adjoining government land, the Board agreed on 29 May 2020 to rezone the site
from “OU” annotated “Traction Substation cum Portal” and “G/IC” zones and an area shown as
‘Road’ to “R(A)8” zone for private residential development subject to a maximum plot ratio of 6 and
a maximum building height of 185mPD. Three residential towers were proposed to be developed on
top of the existing traction substation without affecting its operation, providing about 1,289 flats.
The draft Tung Chung Town Centre Area OZP No. S/I-TCTC/23, incorporating the amendments
amongst others, was exhibited for public inspection under section 5 of the Ordinance on 19 June
2020. After giving consideration to the 70 representations and 9 comments, the Board on 29 January
2021 decided not to propose any amendment to the draft OZP. The draft OZP was approved by the
CE in C on 1 June 2021 and renumbered as S/I-TCTC/24.
