No comments/suggestions.
(i) Parking meters: coins required in the
foreseeable future are 10%, 50%, $1 and
possibly $2.
(ii) Multi-storey car parks:
possible introduction
likely coin require-
of automatic equipment;
ments are $1, $5 and possibly $10.
(iii) Public transport: only the "Star" Ferry
Co., Ltd. likely to use 5 cent coins,
therefore 20 cent preferable to 25 cent coin. (iv) Bus companies would welcome a $2 coin. (v) $5 coin would be useful for some ferry
services and for possible high class
bus services.
The Commissioner for Transport, to whom
correspondence received from transport
undertakings was copied, supplemented the
above comments as follows:-
(i) Car Parks: In view of the revised fees
proposed in the budget speech the
introduction of a $2 coin would be of
advantage.
(ii) Public Transport Fares: Companies generally
endorse the suggestion that a 20 coin
should be introduced. There was some support
for a $2 coin but it is likely that this
would have been increased if operators had
based their comments on future requirements
rather than present conditions.
