OnlineDec04Technical Webinar on Future Planning for LRT Extension in Macau
Currently Macau LRT is only serving the Taipa zone. It is hard to solve the transportation problem and satisfy the tourism future needs. In the next 4 years two extensions of LRT will be constructed, one to Hengqin and the other to Seac Pai Van, which will be a big change for Macau LRT development. The passengers will not be limited to local resident and tourism who stays in Macau. There will also be other passengers who come via China High-speed Railway (CHSR). Nevertheless, it is also necessary to be supported by other transportation infrastructure such as new bridges, tunnels between Taipa and Coloane, tunnel under the Guia hill, new roads and flyovers. The city master plan is very important for Macau’s future transport development.
