The government announced the site selection of the first batch of "simple public housing" earlier, one of which is located at the end of Liantang in Sheung Shui, which is expected to provide 1,000 units.
A reporter from "Hong Kong 01" made an on-site inspection. The construction site is adjacent to the low-density luxury residence Meyer Park and overlooks the Fanling Golf Course. There is a horticultural factory inside the construction site, and there are many "mud hills" outside. The open space is full of industrial waste.
The basic supporting facilities near Liantangwei are not available, and the traffic is a bit inconvenient. It is a distance from the downtown area of Sheung Shui. .

It is adjacent to the mansion and overlooks the Fanling Golf Course in the north
The road opposite the construction site is the luxury residence Myer Park and Gough Ridge. Not far to the north is the Fanling Golf Course. The construction site is currently surrounded by factories, garages, and small villages. The roundabout of Nitou Mountain is about two meters high, and there are a lot of industrial waste piled up on both sides.
There is a lack of markets and supermarkets in the Liantangwei area. Residents have to take buses or minibuses to get out of Sheung Shui to buy food. There is a bus line 77K on the road outside the construction site. It takes about 15 minutes to get out of Sheung Shui MTR Station. The stop sign shows that every 20 minutes class one.
Since Fan Kam Highway is a two-lane, two-way road with narrow traffic lanes and many dump trucks entering and exiting, once a traffic accident occurs, the time to go out may increase.
The government plans to build "simple public housing" at the end of Liantang in Sheung Shui.
