About the website

Welcome to the webpage “Turning Grey to Green: The Green Deck Project Development Study”. As one of our Library’s Digital Humanities Projects, this webpage serves as a central hub and one-stop platform for the public to explore the proposed Green Deck Project, which The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) has been studying since 2012. The initiative envisions the construction of a Green Deck over the Hung Hom Cross Harbour Tunnel Toll Plaza, creating a sustainable and vibrant urban space for the community.

By consolidating diverse resources and data, this webpage offers users a comprehensive view of the Green Deck Project from various perspectives. Here are the key features:

  • Diverse Materials: The webpage includes a wide range of materials, including those from the Green Deck Initiative, produced and provided by PolyU’s Green Deck Project Management Office. These materials encompass documentations, forum and seminar presentations, publicity materials, media coverage, and other online resources.
  • Academic Research: Extensive academic research and publications authored by PolyU researchers are integrated with records in the PolyU Digital Collections Portal, PolyU Open Educational Resources (OER) Portal, PolyU Institutional Research Archive (PIRA).
  • Interactive Timeline: Users can explore the interactive timeline that chronicles the journey of the Green Deck Project development study, from its inception since 2012, securing funding from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust in 2020, to the latest developments.
  • Community Engagement Highlights: The webpage feature highlights of community engagements related to the Green Deck Project over the years. It also includes a map to visualise the community engagement efforts in Hong Kong as well as other cities.
