In the latest video promoting ‘missinglinks.hk’ Paul Zimmerman had to jump and hang off a fence to save him from oncoming traffic.
The “Lost in Deep Water Bay” video (http://youtu.be/MtI9OPiiZB8) highlights the problem of intermittent footpaths along Hong Kong’s roads.
The first video, “Lost in Tsim Sha Tsui” (http://youtu.be/ThFiS_Nn0Q4) highlighted the problem of missing pedestrian crossings by comparing jaywalking across Salisbury Road with the tunnel route.
“The priority has always been the vehicle. We need a greater focus on pedestrians. Despite spending $16 billion on fixing slopes since 1977, half of which were along roads, Government did not fix the footpaths at the same time. By creating a list on-line we hope to help re-balance the focus,” Paul Zimmerman explained.
Designing Hong Kong has created the “Missing Links” campaign to gather information on pedestrian links which need to be fixed through crowd sourcing. People are invites to upload pictures of footpaths or crossings which need improvement at www.missinglinks.hk.
Designing Hong Kong will inform the Transport Department and track their response on-line.

在最新的「邊度冇路行」影片,為了避開對頭車,司馬文跳上並擒住鐵絲網。「深水灣行走攻略」的影片(http://youtu.be/MtI9OPiiZB8)展示了香港斷斷續續行人路的危險性。
此外,我們的第一條影片「尖沙咀行走攻略」(http://youtu.be/ThFiS_Nn0Q4)突顯了缺乏行人過路處所帶來的不便,以及量度了於梳士巴利道亂過馬路和使用行人隧道所需的不同時間。
司馬文說:「一直以來,車輛都有使用道路優先權。我們需要改變這個思維並將重點放在行人方 面。儘管自1977年以來,當局已耗資160億元於鞏固斜坡工程,當中一半的斜坡是位於道路旁邊,但是政府沒有在進行斜坡工程時一同修葺行人路。透過網上 平台,我們希望能建立一個資料庫務求平衡行人的需要。」
創建香港設計了「邊度冇路行」的網上平台希望公眾能告訴我們那裡的行人路設施不足。我們歡迎各位人士上傳有關圖片到www.missinglinks.hk
創建香港會將名單交給運輸署跟進,並會於網上交待最新進展。
