Some of these projects, for example, the West Kowloon reclamation and expressway, would have been required even without the airport.
The estimated order of costs of these key airport projects is as follows :
Project
Order of cost
($ million at 1990 prices in period to 1997)
W Kowloon Reclamation
W Kowloon Expressway
W Harbour Crossing
9,500
2,500
4,000
Route 3 (part)
5,000
CLK Airport
38,000
N Lantau Expressway
5,000
(incl. rail reserve)
Tung Chung development phase I
3,000
Lantau Fixed Crossing
two bridges
7,000
rail portion & Route 3
interchange
Utilities & Other Miscellaneous
3,000
2,000
79,000
(Caution should be
exercised in the interpretation of these
order of costs as most of the projects are currently at the preliminary design stage, and the figures do not include allowance for contingencies. The Airport Railway has also been excluded. A study of the railway is currently in hand, which will review the scope and target commissioning date of the project. A decision will be announced in early 1991.)
