This report, prepared for Friends of the Earth (Hong Kong), examined the current transportation policies in relation to air pollution in Hong Kong. The transport policies of several cities including Seoul, Singapore, and Rome were examined in relation to reduction of congestion and air pollution. The pedestrians were surveyed and observations of traffic patterns in Hong Kong were made, then the team recommended a reevaluation of the bus system, several limited traffic zones, and several changes to the cross-harbor tunnels.
