Western Harbour Crossing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Western Harbour Crossing (abbreviation WHC; Traditional Chinese: 西區海底隧道) is a dual 3-lane immersed tube tunnel in Hong Kong. It is the third tunnel to cross Victoria Harbour, linking the newly reclaimed land in West Kowloon with Sai Ying Pun on Hong Kong Island. It was constructed by the Western Harbour Tunnel Company on a 30 year franchise build-operate-transfer (BOT) model proposed by the Government.
The Western Harbour Crossing is part of the Airport Core Programme which was a comprehensive set of infrastructure projects associated with the airport at Chek Lap Kok. The tunnel carries on the Route 3 designation from the West Kowloon Highway, and connects to Route 4 on Hong Kong Island.
