香港政府は、東九龍で計画されている環境に優しい交通システムの事業性を高めるため、将来の運営事業者に対して3つの不動産用地を提供することを承認した。彩虹と油塘を結ぶこのプロジェクトは、2033年の開業を目指している。
政府は金曜日、この取り決めにより民間部門の専門知識と財務能力を最大限に活用できると述べた。落札者は、資金調達、設計、建設、運営、保守の責任を負うことになる。
支出を差し引いた予想収益が資本に対する期待収益を下回る見通しであることから、政府は主に住宅地である3つの用地の開発権を付与する。運営事業者は名目上の地代を支払う予定である。
全長7kmとなる路線の入札は来月開始される。同様の取り決めは啓徳の交通システムでも採用された。
