Hong Kong fast-tracks Northern Metropolis roads, but connectivity gaps risk stranding first residents

Hong Kong has accelerated construction of key Northern Metropolis road links, moving the San Tin highway section to 2034 and the Tsing Lung Bridge to 2033. However, experts and lawmakers warn that infrastructure may lag behind housing developments like the Hung Shui Kiu University Town, potentially leaving early residents without adequate transport. The government is urged to introduce express bus routes and expedite the Central Rail Link to ensure connectivity.
