Study Tour | Tracks of Transformation: A Tram Tour on Urban Mobility & Development

Tours
Mon 26 May 2:30 PM — 5:00 PM (GMT+08:00) Beijing, Chongqing, Hong Kong, Urumqi

The specially curated tram tour is organized exclusively for the Urban Land Institute. 

Our 2-hour journey begins at the historic Tram Depot, the heart of iconic "Made-in-HK" tram system. Aboard an antique open-top tram, we will explore how this unique network has played a vital role in shaping Hong Kong’s urban landscape. As we travel towards Causeway Bay, we will examine the integration of the tram system into the city’s development, its enduring connection to vibrant communities, and its ability to adapt and thrive in an ever-evolving urban environment. 

More than a ride through the city’s streets, this tour offers an opportunity to exchange ideas about the future of transportation and urban development. It is a chance to share insights, foster meaningful connections, and discuss how collaboration can drive innovative solutions for the challenges of urban mobility across the APAC region.
