The Urban Renewal Authority (URA) today (Tuesday) announced that four tender proposals have been received for the development of Kwun Tong Town Centre Project (Development Areas 2 & 3), according to preliminary counting.

A tender review panel will consider the tenders received and make recommendation to the URA Board for a decision on the award of a development agreement in respect of this project.

Earlier, the URA invited 10 property developers to submit a tender for the development after they had put forward their expressions of interest.

The project is the largest redevelopment initiative ever undertaken by the URA since establishment. With a total area of about 5.35 hectares, the project is divided into five Development Areas and is implemented in phases. Development Areas 2 and 3 that are being put up for tender occupy a site of about 21,754 square metres. 

The new development is set to provide a total residential gross floor area of 138,980 square metres containing about 1,700 residential units, together with a total non-domestic gross floor area of about 33,220 square metres for retail shops, a two-level public transport interchange for franchised buses and public light buses, a hawker bazaar and a refuse collection point. In addition, a public open space
of about 6,400 square metres will be provided.
