Garden Bakery, the only remaining industrial operation in Sham Tseng, has been zoned "Residential (Group E)" to phase out industry and remove the industrial-residential interface problem in the area, the Town Planning Board says.

The Chief Executive in Council has approved the draft Tsuen Wan West Outline Zoning Plan, covering 450 hectares and comprising Ting Kau, Sham Tseng and Tsing Lung Tau.

The Green Belt zone, about 302.5 hectares, will protect the existing natural environment from urban development.

Two suburban commercial centres, about 0.6 hectares, have been zoned "Commercial". They include the sub-district commercial centre associated with the Hong Kong Garden development in Tsing Lung Tau and the cluster of speciality roast-goose restaurants in Sham Tseng.

A site on the headland between Ting Kau and Lido Beaches is designated "Comprehensive Development Area (1)" for hotel development.

Some 38.3 hectares is zoned for residential developments and 13.9 hectares is zoned "Village Type Development".
