由退休政府規劃師薛國強一人組成的智仕顧問公司,日前向城規會建議申請取消中環至金鐘電車路軌。薛國強接受電台訪問時稱,支持保留電車的人是「抱殘守缺」,更表示「如果你這麼懷念,可以擺去博物館。」

香港電車迷會 回應 : 全球四百多個城市均使用路面電車系統作為交通骨幹,是現今最時尚及最具效益的交通,而不少城市如台灣高雄,中國深圳,上海,瀋陽及廣洲等地近年都引進現代化電車,鼓勵市民使用環保集體運輸,減少使用汽車。而香港電車雖然是較傳統的形態,但近年正積極改革,以提高營運效率,挽回流失中的客量。電車就算點變,由單層到雙層,由熱狗變有冷氣,都是屬於香港人的電車!都是我們熟悉的香港電車!

我們已發起聯署,收集到的支持將轉交到城規會及相關部門請表達你們對電車的支持!請繼續廣傳給你的朋友

A consulting firm recently proposed to cancel the tram path from Central to Admiralty. The aim is to alleviate the problem of traffic congestion in Central. Wisely Consultants Limited indicates that the transportation function of tram connecting the West Island and East Island has been replaced by MTR, but tram occupied 30 percents surface area of Des Voeux Road. Therefore, the cancellation of tram in the concerned area can alleviate the problem of traffic congestion. The mentioned consulting firm indicated that if the Town Planning Board approves the suggestion, it starts discussing with Transport and Housing Bureau and the operating firm of Tram about how to implement the suggestion.

Tram has long been a remarkable icon of Hong Kong. Many people got on tram and went to their destination when they were young. Therefore, tram is part of childhood memory of Hong Kong people. Besides, tram is much more environmentally friendly than other transportation modes. Tram deserves to be retained due to all of the above reasons.

To let the government hear what we say, to SAVE the HONG KONG TRAMS, to protect our environment, please sign the petition without hesitation.

The opposition is loud and ignores what this city actually needs. I am tired of fighting this battle alone but seeing these names pile up keeps me going until we hit that thousand mark.

The fight to keep our trams on the road is becoming an uphill grind and I am feeling the weight of it tonight. We are nearing one hundred signatures but we need a final surge to prove that this city still values its history over convenience. Please send this link to anyone you know who refuses to see our trams disappear.

現時做成交通問題的不是電車, 而是政府保守的以汽車為主的交通規劃。事實上,大量汽車在中西區令該區的污染問題嚴重,如果取消電車,只會令原先由電車分擔的人流量大量湧入了其他交通設施,巴士、及地鐵能否負荷是有疑問。此外,地鐵本身已是十分擠迫,說地鐵取代電車根本是痴人說夢。如果真要將電車路段改用途,亦應改為單車徑及行人使用,而將電車移往海旁,這樣的城市規劃既能增加香港對外賣點,而既然薛國強說行路亦可快過電車,則使用單車亦更有效率,亦有助將一部分人口壓力從使用交通工具釋放出來。同時亦能改善空氣污染問題。

It is a stupid idea to detrail the trams in Hong Kong. Tourists love sightseeing of Hong Kong by sitting of this iconic trams. It is just like cable car in San Francisco, tourists love to ride and check out the downstown of San fran.

反對有關禁止電車在中區行駛,以譲出更多空間予汽車行駛的建議。以汽車取代電車是一項反環保措施,並會令中環的空氣污染情況惡化。 為改善中區的空氣質素及減少汽車排放污染物,政府更應在中環區設立電車,行人及單車環保專區,禁止非公務車及私家車進入徳輔道中。 為改善中區交通情況,政府應限制私家車進入中區,鼓勵市民使用公共交通工具或踏單車。 同時應將現行巴士路線及巴士站重組。設立環保專區後,巴士應改道皇后大道中及干諾道中,取消所有在德輔道中的巴士站。

They are a part of the fabric of the city. They help the poor ans the old. The poor can't afford to ride the MTR. The poor and old have time not money. So rich people can drive their cars...... Hong should implement ways to reduce cars not make easier.

There are better ways to alleviate congestion around that area. For a start, how about strictly enforcing illegal parking by those hideous 7 seaters? Introduce congestion/toll charges? The idea is to lower the amount of private cars on the road, not encourage more!

The tram is an environmental friendly medium of transportation. At the same time it provides an inexpensive way of travel between the eastern and western side of the island. The tram is also a tourists' attraction, providing an interesting way to explore the city.
