At the end of last year, Chief Executive Lee Ka-chao stated in his first Policy Address that he would start the reclamation project for the waters facing Yun’ao, including the Tseung Kwan O Innovation Park (formerly known as Tseung Kwan O Industrial Estate) in District 137 and Tseung Kwan O in District 132. The Chinese permanent cemetery faces the waters.
The Development Bureau held a media briefing today (19th) on the reclamation development plan of the Tseung Kwan O District. Among them, the reclamation area of District 137 is located in the south of Lohas Park and adjacent to the Tseung Kwan O Desalination Plant, covering an area of about 20 hectares. It is expected to provide 50,000 residential units, which will be planned with a seven-to-three ratio of public and private housing. In other words, public housing will account for 34,500 units.

A spokesman for the Development Bureau said that there are currently about 80 hectares of land in Tseung Kwan O Area 137, together with about 20 hectares to be reclaimed for development, the developable land will reach 101 hectares, including about 20 hectares in the existing barge basin and reclamation along the coastline hectare.
Based on the highest residential plot ratio of 7.5, the district can provide about 50,000 housing units for 135,000 people.
According to the seven-to-three ratio of public and private housing, the area can provide about 34,500 public housing units and 15,500 private housing units.
It is expected to be occupied by 2030 at the earliest.
The spokesman continued to point out that the higher-density housing development will surround the railway station proposed to be located in the central area of District 137, Tseung Kwan O.
The proposed railway station will be within a 500m walking distance of most residents (over 2/3 of the planned population).
The document shows that the "Tseung Kwan O South Extension Line" will provide railway transportation services for Tseung Kwan O District 137, and will extend from the existing network in the form of heavy rail to District 137 through the subsea tunnel opposite the Tseung Kwan O Innovation Park. About 2 hectares of land reclamation is located opposite the Innovation Park to provide a small piece of land to protect a short section of the railway line before entering the water.
