Highways Department - Government of Hong Kong
As a road user or a frequent rail passenger, you would have noticed that our roads and rails have major expansions over the years. You might even have proudly shown your visiting friends Hong Kong’s efficient transport systems. However, at times, you might find it rather annoying that there seems to be endless road works, which have caused traffic congestions and inconvenience to the public.
The Highways Department aims at providing an efficient road and rail network for the movement of people and goods. We undertake the planning, design and maintenance of Hong Kong’s public road system and coordinate the implementation of new highway and railway projects. We welcome your suggestions and comments in order to help us to improve on our work and service.
