Green Deck : a catalyst for a green & vibrant community

綠化環境 : 活化社區

2017-01

Located at Hung Hom since 1957, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has been witnessing the changes and development in this area over the past 60 years. The far from satisfactory urban planning model, rapid growth in population and economic activities in nearby districts have brought along many teething problems: heavy traffic, air and noise pollution, poor connectivity, lack of open space and many others. Not only the 30,000+ staff and students of PolyU suffer, the physical and mental well-being of nearby communities and the daily commuters have also been adversely affected. PolyU, a university which cherishes a sustainable future, is committed to finding an innovative solution to revitalize the districts.

香港理工大學（理大）自1957年起扎根紅磡，在過去60多年來，一直見證這個地區的變化和發展。落後的城市規劃，以及鄰近地區人口和經濟活動的急速增長帶來了許多問題：交通擠塞、空氣和噪音污染、地區分割、缺乏空間等等。現時，不僅理大3萬多名員生備受困擾，在鄰近社區生活的居民和每天經過該區的公眾人士，其身體和精神健康亦受到負面影響。一向重視可持續發展的理大，正致力尋求一個創新方案去活化附近地區。
