The Government announced today (December 15) that the tender for a short-term tenancy (STT) of one lot of government land at the junction of Hoi Shing Road and Hoi Kok Street, Tsuen Wan (STT No. 1554 Tsuen Wan), for implementing a pilot project on an automated parking system (APS) has been awarded to Kin Wing Hong (International) Company Limited at a monthly rental of $150,289. The term of the STT is a fixed term of five years and thereafter monthly.
The Transport Department (TD) is taking forward six APS pilot projects with a view to acquiring and consolidating experience in building, operating and managing different types of APSs and the associated financial arrangements. This will pave the way for wider application of APSs in government and privately operated public car parks in future.
Kin Wing Hong is required to erect, construct and install an APS in the form of a puzzle stacking system so as to provide not less than 75 automated parking spaces out of a total minimum of 245 parking spaces on the site under the STT. The TD will co-ordinate with Kin Wing Hong with a view to commissioning the APS in the second half of next year.
