Inside private housing estates, the provision

of zebra crossings is left to the discretion of estate

managers. This is because at present the Road

Traffic Ordinance does not apply to such roads.

However, the Executive Council has recently endorsed

a recommendation that the road safety provisions of

this Ordinance should apply to these roads and non-

gazetted roads in public housing estates. This will

bring the provision of such zebra crossings under the

control of the Transport Department and draft

legislation is being prepared to give effect to this.
