Electric Vehicle registration and distribution of car parking spaces
       

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Transport Department,

I am a PhD student from the Hong Kong University of Science and
Technology. Our research team (lead by Prof. Pengyu ZHU) is currently
working on a project about optimizating EV charging infrastructure in Hong
Kong, the project is supported by the CLP Research Fellowship Programme
2022.

For the purpose of this research project, I would like to request for the
following data:

1. Historical data on Electric Vehicle (EV) registration by TPUSB from
2006 to 2022:
- Annual number of EV registrations by Tertiary Planning Units (TPUs) and
Street Blocks (SBs) or Village Clusters (VCs). TPUSB is the geographical
division adopted in the Population Census / Population By-census (see,
[1]https://www.pland.gov.hk/pland_en/info_s...)
(for TPU and SB/VC boundaries, see
[2]https://data.gov.hk/en-data/dataset/hk-p...).

2. Data on the spatial distributions of the following types of car parking
spaces
- Number of on-street parking spaces (including non-metered and metered
parking spaces), and their locations
- Number of parking spaces in government public car parks (including
multi-storey and open-air car parks) managed by the Transportation
Department; and the location of each government public car park
- Number of parking spaces (covers and open, full time and part time) at
the public housing estates, Home Ownership Scheme (HOS) courts, shopping
centres and flatted factories of the Hong Kong Housing Authority (HA); and
the location of each HA carpark managed by HA
- Number of parking spaces for public use (e.g., hourly parking) in
commercial, residential and industrial premises; and the location of
corresponding car park
- Number of parking spaces for private use (e.g., reserved for property
owners or rentals) in commercial, residential and industrial premises; and
the location of corresponding car park

Yours faithfully,

Xinying TAN

Dear Xinying

I refer to your request for access to information no. 069/23.  Further to
our interim reply dated 2 March 2023, our reply is as follows:

Item 1

The Transport Department (TD) does not maintain data of the number of
registered electric vehicles with breakdown by Tertiary Planning Units and
Street Blocks or Village Clusters.  For other statistics relating to
vehicle registration and licensing, please visit our website for more
details.
[1]https://www.td.gov.hk/en/transport_in_ho...

Item 2

The number of on-street metered and on-street non-metered parking spaces
in Hong Kong as at December 2022 are 19 022 and 17 116 respectively. The
locations of these on-street parking spaces can be referred to the
attached excel files.

(a) Location of on-street metered parking spaces:

(b) Location of on-street non-metered parking spaces:

The number of parking spaces and locations of car parks managed by TD can
be obtained via the following website:
 [2]https://www.td.gov.hk/en/transport_in_ho...

Please approach the Housing Authority for the details of parking data in
public housing estates, HOS courts, shopping centres and flatted factories
under their management.

The number of public and ancillary parking spaces at the Government and
privately-operated car parks as at February 2023 are summarised as
follows.  As a large amount of data is involved, we are unable to enlist
the location of each car park in detail.

Dear Xinying,

I refer to your request for access to information dated 17 April 2023.
 Our reply is as follows:

According to the current practice, applicant is required to provide
address information to the Transport Department (“TD”) when submitting a
licensing application.  Data collected is for the purpose of facilitating
communication between TD and the applicant on licensing matters.  TD does
not maintain the address data with grouping under Tertiary Planning Unit
("TPU") or District in Hong Kong in our system.  Therefore, we are unable
to provide the number of registered electric vehicles by TPU or District
as requested.  

Thank you.

Dear Yoanna Y LO,

Thank you for your previouse reply and information you provided.

Regarding the data on EV registrations and licenses, could you further
generate the data of private EV car registration numbers for all Tertiary
Planning Units (TPUs), or Districts from the database?

As I know, registrators have to provide their living distric and address
when they registor their car. Therefore, I am wondering that TD should
have the EV numbers of each TPU or District in Hong Kong.

Yours sincerely,

Xinying TAN

Dear Yoanna Y LO,

Thank you for your previous reply. The information provided is useful for
me.

With regard to the spatial distribution of car parking spaces, you have
provided me with the number of public and ancillary parking spaces at the
Government and privately-operated car parks across the 18 districts in
Hong Kong (quoted at the end of this message).

However, my research needs the spatial distribution of parking spaces at a
lower level of geographical areas. Could you provide more specific data on
the number of parking spaces across Tertiary Planning Units (TPUs)? The
geographic boundaries of Tertiary Planning Units demarcated by the
Planning Department can be found here:
[1]https://data.gov.hk/en-data/dataset/hk-p....

It would be great if you could classify the number of public and ancillary
parking spaces at the Government and privately-operated car parks, the
same data layout as the previous data reply. If not, the total number of
all parking spaces in each TPU would be useful enough for me.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Dear Yoanna Y LO,

Thank you for your previouse reply and information you provided.

Regarding the data on EV registrations and licenses, could you further

generate the data of private EV car registration numbers for all Tertiary

Planning Units (TPUs), or Districts from the database?

As I know, registrators have to provide their living distric and address

when they registor their car. Therefore, I am wondering that TD should

have the EV numbers of each TPU or District in Hong Kong.

Yours sincerely,

Xinying TAN

Dear Yoanna Y LO,

Thank you for your previous reply. The information provided is useful for
me.

With regard to the spatial distribution of car parking spaces, you have
provided me with the number of public and ancillary parking spaces at the
Government and privately-operated car parks across the 18 districts in
Hong Kong (quoted at the end of this message).

However, my research needs the spatial distribution of parking spaces at a
lower level of geographical areas. Could you provide more specific data on
the number of parking spaces across Tertiary Planning Units (TPUs)? The
geographic boundaries of Tertiary Planning Units demarcated by the
Planning Department can be found here:
[1]https://data.gov.hk/en-data/dataset/hk-p....

It would be great if you could classify the number of public and ancillary
parking spaces at the Government and privately-operated car parks, the
same data layout as the previous data reply. If not, the total number of
all parking spaces in each TPU would be useful enough for me.

Thank you in advance for your help!

Dear Xinying,

I refer to your request for access to information dated 17 April 2023.

 Our reply is as follows:

According to the current practice, applicant is required to provide

address information to the Transport Department (“TD”) when submitting a

licensing application.  Data collected is for the purpose of facilitating

communication between TD and the applicant on licensing matters.  TD does

not maintain the address data with grouping under Tertiary Planning Unit

("TPU") or District in Hong Kong in our system.  Therefore, we are unable

to provide the number of registered electric vehicles by TPU or District

as requested.  

Thank you.

Yours sincerely,

Miss Yoanna LO
