我現時正向政府提議興建一條單車徑，由荃灣麗城花園沿青山公路延伸至屯門三聖邨。
踏單車是有益身心的一項運動，可強健體魄之餘，又可舒緩壓力及同時欣賞沿路景色。此外，踏單車不會污染環境，屬零碳排放量的運動，更可取代汽車作短途的交通工具。
青山公路沿線住宅大廈林立，住有逾十萬市民。當中大部份為中產人士，工作繁重，生活節奏急促。假若有一條安全又方便的單車徑在鄰近，他們可於工餘時間做運動減壓，同時提供予他們一個機會與家人共渡天倫。
再者，踏單車人士不斷上升，除大圍至大埔的單車徑之外，此單車徑可為市民提供另一選擇。黃金大道沿途有很多景點，有些更鮮為人知。在單車徑的左面，你可觀賞美麗的海岸線，大橋以及絡繹不絕的飛機和船隻。在右面，你可觀賞迷人的山景及探訪古老村落。你更可於九咪半或其他沿途沙灘暢泳、停下觀賞宏偉的汀九橋及青馬大橋、品嚐遠近馳名的燒鵝及燒鴨、於岸邊垂釣、在黃金海岸渡過一個優閑的下午、最後在三聖享用海鮮餐。
此黃金大道由荃灣至屯門連接數個區域，不但提供一個讓市民做運動及遊覽香港的方法，同時可為沿路景點及商店帶動人流，亦使住宅屋苑附近的環境得以改善，有助提升整個地段及區域的價值，從而希望可達到最終和諧社會的目標。
今年八月二十六日將會舉辦一個推廣日。詳情稍後將再作公佈。
Project B
I am proposing to the Government to build and establish “The Golden Route”, which is a cycling lane from Tsuen Wan Belvedere Garden to Sam Shing at Castle Peak Road.
Cycling is one of the greatest methods of exercise and it helps people to keep healthy and to stay fit both physically and mentally. It is also an excellent way to enjoy Hong Kong’s natural beauty by riding through scenic landscapes. Apart from the health benefits and the enjoyment of cycling in Hong Kong, cycling is also extremely environmentally friendly as it does not pollute, thus keeping the air clean and it is a carbon-free exercise so it is a great alternative transport for short distance travelling.
Along Castle Peak Road, there are over 100,000 residents and the majority of them belong to the middle working class whom have stressful life patterns. Therefore by offering a safe passage for cycling it would be a perfect solution for them to workout whilst releasing pressure by spending quality leisure time with their families.
Apart from that, there is an increasing population for this kind of sport and this cycling track can serve as an alternative to the track from Tai Wai to Tai Po. Along “the Golden Route”, there are plenty of scenic spots and some of them are not well-known.
On the left of the route, there are breath-taking views of a beautiful seashore line, architectural bridges and interesting sea traffic whilst being immersed in the rare vibrant fresh air which is often absent in Hong Kong. There are aircrafts flying above and large container ships sailing across the harbour.
On the right, you can enjoy the gorgeous hillside landscapes and visit some long-established rural villages. You may even stop for a quick swim along the famous 9.5 Milestone or any of the other beaches along the way and be amazed by the magnificent Ting Kau Bridge and Tsing Ma Bridge. In terms of food you may taste the well-known roast goose and roast duck, or even actively fish for your lunch along the coastline. The Gold Coast area is a lovely relaxing place to spend your afternoon and a prefect end to the day would be to have dinner at one of the seafood restaurants in Sam Shing which serves fresh seafood.
“The Golden Route” links up several districts extending from Tsuen Wan to Tuen Mun. Not only will it provide a means for exercising and touring Hong Kong, it can also increase the flow of people along the route harmonising the residential facilities and districts by increasing the value of the area through improving the surrounding environment. It is hoped that the synergy effect would bring ultimate harmonisation to the society as a whole whilst improving the quality of life and the living environment.
There will be a campaign day on 26th August 2012(Sunday) of which details will be announced shortly.
