LANDSCAPE AND VISUAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT. 3.9.1 The proposed development and associated works follow in principle the planning intentions of the Visions and Goals for Victoria Harbour prepared by Town Planning Board and the views of the public received during the engagement exercises of the HER that was carried out under the steer of HEC Sub-committee on WDII Review. In response to the CFA judgement on the PHO, the extent of reclamation has been reduced to the minimum. With the new waterfront development proposals together with enhanced connectivity to the waterfront from the hinterland and east-west linkages along the northshore, the landscape planning framework of the waterfront from Wan Chai to North Point is strengthened and reinforced by the proposed project. 3.9.2 Approximately 12.7 ha (1.8% of total 700 ha harbour area) of Victoria Harbour will be permanently lost under the proposed land formed for the construction of the Trunk Road. CBTS will be temporarily alienated for the construction of the Trunk Road tunnel. The temporary reclamation will be removed and sea-bed reinstated after the completion of the tunnel construction. A temporary typhoon shelter with mooring area of approximately 4 ha will be constructed in Victoria Harbour just outside the existing typhoon shelter. It is considered that the residual landscape impacts on Victoria Harbour are moderate during construction phase but slight during operation phase with implementation of mitigation measures. 3.9.3 Under the proposed development, Fenwick Pier Street Public Open Space will be temporarily affected during the construction stage. In the longer term, this open space will be permanently lost for the development of the Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts Extension. Approximately 0.24 ha of Xxxxxxxx Xxxx will be permanently lost for the construction of Slip Road 8 of the Trunk Road. Alternative schemes of Slip Road 8 and reprovisioning options of affected facilities in Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, including a bowling green, have been examined to minimise the intrusion into the Xxxxxxxx Xxxx and minimise the impacts. Construction works will temporarily affect the operations of the CBTS. During the construction phase, therefore, there will be substantial negative impacts on the Fenwick Pier Street Public Open Space landscape character and on the CBTS landscape character, and moderate residual impact on Xxxxxxxx Xxxx. Under the proposed development, approximately 13.8 ha of new waterfront open space will be provided to strengthen the existing lan...

LANDSCAPE AND VISUAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT. 8.1 This section summarises the approach to and the findings of the Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment. The key criteria for landscape and visual baseline study and impact assessment are presented in Annexes 10 and 18 of the EIA-TM. In addition the assessment report makes reference to other relevant legislation and standards for impact assessment and evaluation. 8.2 The Study Area for the preparation of the landscape impact assessment was to include all areas within 500 metres from the Project site boundary and the areas likely to be impacted by the Project. For the visual impact assessment the Study Area is based on the visual envelope, the area from which the proposals can be seen. 8.3 Landscape mitigation measures have been recommended to ameliorate the potential landscape and visual impacts, and ensure that upon implementation the Project will fit into the existing landscape and visual context. These measures include the careful design of the engineering measures to minimize the potential impacts upon the existing landscape resources within the road corridor and the visual amenity for both nearby residents and vehicle travellers and pedestrians. This includes the existing trees which line the road and are important to both the landscape context of the road corridor and in screening the road in views from adjacent VSRs. Another important aspect of the landscape mitigation approach is the planting of new trees and shrubs utilizing native species where possible to restore and enhance the landscape setting and visual amenity of the road and its ecological value.
