Hong Kong Government to Tender Shek Mun Residential Site, Adding 960 Flats to Q3 2026‑27 Land Supply

The Development Bureau announced that a 48,090‑square‑metre site at the junction of Tai Chung Kiu Road and On Sum Street in Shek Mun, Shatin, will be put out for tender from October until December 2026. The site, originally zoned for commercial use, has received Town Planning Board approval for private residential development and can provide about 960 flats. Developers will be required to set aside space for a public car park. The tender is part of the third‑quarter 2026‑27 land sale programme, which also includes the Urban Renewal Authority’s To Kwa Wan Road project (≈1,050 flats) and seven other projects expected to deliver 1,835 flats, bringing the total private housing supply for the quarter to roughly 3,845 units. Combined with the first two quarters, the government projects 15,680 units for the first three quarters, surpassing the annual target of 12,600 units. The Development Bureau also plans to tender a Siu Lek Yuen site for a student hostel that would provide around 600 beds.
