Secretary for Development Carrie Lam says the Government will work with the Tourism Board and the trade to study the demand for cycling tourism and the feasibility of developing it.
She today told lawmakers the board and the trade will launch guided tours from November to promote cycling travel activities around the Deep Bay and Mai Po areas to overseas visitors to test the market.
A total of 226 complaints were received in the past three years cycle tracks' ancillary facilities. Eighty-one were related to bicycle parking spaces, 60 to traffic signs, 83 to railings, and two to rental or repair kiosks.
"The Government reviews from time to time the adequacy of these facilities taking into consideration the usage of the cycle tracks and the adjacent road traffic as well as public opinions, and will make improvements wherever appropriate and practicable," she said.
