In response to media enquiries on an overseas media's report today (February 2) alleging that there are delays to the Three-Runway System project (3RS), a spokesman for the Transport and Logistics Bureau said that the Airport Authority Hong Kong (AAHK) is taking forward the 3RS at full steam according to schedule. It is a clear target of AAHK to complete all the building and infrastructure works of the 3RS and put all three runways into operation within 2024. The AAHK will open relevant passenger facilities progressively in the light of passenger traffic demand.
The spokesman stresses that there is absolutely no question of delay of the 3RS project and that any such allegation is groundless.
