For immediate release

The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in Hong Kong supports HKSAR Government on new toll plans for three road harbour crossings on 2 August 2023

The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport in Hong Kong (CILTHK) would like to express our support to the Govenment's new toll plans for three road harbour crossings to rationalise cross-harbour traffic and alleviate congestion at such crossings, after its takeover of the Western Harbour Crossing (WHC) franchise on 2 August 2023.

We could see that the flat rates for all tunnels during normal and off-peak hours could lead to drivers' choice on tunnels based on route distance rather than distoried by toll level. 

A surcharge during peak hours could also reduce the usage of private cars could effectively reduce the traffic congestion for the cross harbour tunnels.

At the same time, the Institute would like to point out that reducing traffic congestion will not only improve public transport services, but also benefit most citizens.

香港運輸物流學會支持香港政府於 2023 年 8 月 2 日推出之「三隧分流」新方案

香港運輸物流學會支持香港政府於 2023 年 8 月 2 日於收回西隧專營權後推出之「三隧分流」新方案。

我們可以看到,所有隧道於正常和非繁忙時間的劃一收費能令駕駛人士根據路線距離而選擇行駛那條隧道,而不是取決於扭曲的隧道收費。

繁忙時間附加費亦可減少私家車使用隧道,有效地紓緩過海隧道的交通擠塞情況。

同時,本會想指出減少交通擁堵不但可改善公共交通服務,也能令大多數市民受惠。
