Fudie Village, named after the butterfly, has been occupied this week. The prospective tenants have received notices from the Housing Department and are preparing to renovate their new homes. However, the traffic congestion in Tai Po has been unresolved for many years and the new housing estates will have a large population after completion. In addition, some district councillors are worried about the deterioration of traffic congestion and the serious shortage of parking spaces in the district. I am afraid that in the future, "illegal vehicles parked from the mountainside to the top of the mountain," like Shuiquan'ao Village in Shatin.
At this stage, the residents of Fudie Village still need to rely on the livelihood facilities of the neighboring Fuxiang Village. For example, it takes about 5 minutes to buy food from the market and supermarket in Fuxiang Village.

Fu Die Village is located on Chung Ya Road in Tai Po. It is a new large-scale housing estate in the area. It is named "Fu Die Village" because of its location close to the Butterfly Nursery. It is adjacent to Tai Po Hospital and Nethersole Hospital.
Fudie Village is divided into three phases, with 10 buildings, providing about 9,116 units. The first phase has a total of 655 households, and the occupation has started recently; the second phase of 8 blocks is expected to be completed in 2023, which is estimated to provide 7,431 units. For housing units, the third phase is still under preparation. Fu Tie Village is expected to add more than 20,000 residents to Tai Po.
Residents of Tai Po: It takes ten minutes to drive to half an hour before arriving
Tai Po’s transportation facilities have always been criticized. Facing the huge increase in the number of residents after the completion of new public housing estates, District Councillor He Wai-lin said that the traffic in the district will definitely be paralyzed in the future. He described that the population in the district will expand in the next few years. In addition to Fudie Village, there may be a number of development plans to be launched in the region in the future, such as the northern metropolitan area, transit housing, transitional housing, and land sharing plans. It is believed that the population in the region will continue to grow, but the current The transportation facilities are unable to bear the load.
The construction of Queen's Hill Village in North District has worsened traffic problems
He Weilin pointed out that traffic congestion is very common in the Tai Po area. The 9-car trains on the East Rail Line are overwhelming. Many residents have reported that they have to wait for two 9-car trains every day to get on the East Rail cars. In the same situation, “it will take half an hour to arrive by a 10-minute drive.” Residents lamented that traffic jams have become a habit. With the completion of Queen’s Hill Village in the North District, residents will also need to travel to and from the city via Tai Po and Tolo Port. Add stopper".
In addition, He Weilin said that in the face of the existing traffic congestion in the Tai Po area, some prospective tenants in Fudie Village expressed concern to him. He bluntly said, "Don’t worry about living in the family. If you are too late to scare the other 8 blocks, you will have to worry about it. ".
He hopes that the government will face up to the relevant issues as soon as possible. He hopes that through the construction of new highways, the north-south road will be connected so that the people of Tai Po can reach Kowloon directly, otherwise the traffic in the area will be severely paralyzed in the long run.
In addition, Fudie Village is close to Tai Po Hospital and Nethersole Hospital. He Weilin said that if traffic congestion continues in the future, it will be difficult to guarantee that the hospital's rescue services will be affected.
Demand for parking spaces in the village exceeds demand, more than 20,000 people compete for 300 parking spaces
In addition to transportation facilities, the supply of parking spaces in Fudie Village is also in short supply. More than 20,000 residents need to compete for more than 300 parking spaces. It is expected that the illegal parking situation in the area will become more serious in the future.
Since Song Ya Road to Nam Wan Road is the main arterial road for residents of Fu Die Village to the MTR station, Ho Wai-lin pointed out that the Transport Department had used widening roads to solve the traffic congestion problem, but after the widening, parking violations followed. "The widening project is useless and continues to be stuffed."
He Weilin explained that the residents of Fudie Village are mostly grass-roots citizens. Some people rely on vans to transport goods and taxis for their livelihoods. Vehicles are their means of making a living. There are only 20 parking spaces completed at this stage, but there are nearly 650 households. I hope to successfully apply; after the completion of the 9 buildings, it is estimated that more than 20,000 people will compete for more than 300 parking spaces, which is seriously in short supply.
He Weilin added that the roads near Fudie Village are similar to those of Shuiquanao Village in Shatin, but there are more major roads in the area than Fudie Village, including Duo Shek Street and Shuiquanao Street. The illegal parking situation is still extremely serious. Parking vehicles are parked from the mountainside to the top of the mountain. "The roundabout at the top of the mountain is sometimes forced to stop the car."
He described the situation in Shuiquan'ao Village as alarming. After all the buildings in Fudie Village are completed, the illegal parking situation in the area is even more worrying.
Facing the shortage of parking spaces, He Weilin said that it should be resolved before the housing estate is officially completed. For example, it is too late to do it before you die.
The supermarket in the village will not open until 2023
As for supporting facilities around Fudie Village, He Weilin pointed out that there are only a few shops and a restaurant nearby. There is a four-storey community service complex next to it, which contains facilities for the elderly and childcare. The supermarket in the village will be released in 2023. The other 8 blocks of the second phase will only be open after completion. New residents can now buy food from the Fu Heng Village market and supermarket. The journey takes about 5 minutes.
He Weilin said that he has not received any requests for help from new residents and will pay close attention to the situation in the area in the future.
