The World's Largest Tunnel-Boring Machine

25,000-horsepower Bertha in Seattle's double-decker highway project.
(Popular Science Posted 11.11.2013)

Built in Japan and reassembled in the U.S., Bertha is digging the 1.7-mile tunnel by advancing at an average of 35 feet a day. As its 57.5-foot-wide (~17.5m) head spins, 4-by-6-inch drill bits tear into the ground, dislodging small rocks and breaking up the soil. The new double-decker highway tunnel is scheduled to open in 2015.

Height: 57.5 feet
Weight: 7,000 tons
Length: 326 feet

The Most Densely Populated Place On Earth (Kowloon Walled City 九龍城寨)

(Reference; South China Moring Post on 17 Apr 2013)
Kowloon Walled City: Life in the City of Darkness
It's 20 years since demolition of Kowloon Walled City began, but former residents hold fond memories of the overcrowded slum they called home.

The Walled City dates back about a thousand years, but it was only in the 1950s that it turned from a former military fort into an outrageously densely populated structure controlled by vicious gangs. But it remained one of the most peculiar inhabited areas on the planet, its jurisdiction unclear, a country within Hong Kong within China or Britain. To mark the 20-year anniversary of its demolition, the South China Morning Post made this fascinating infographic. If you like the sorts of graphics that show intricate structures, this is definitely one to pore over. Read more about it here.

They include the West Island Line (WIL), Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link (XRL), South Island Line (East) (SIL(E)), Kwun Tong Line Extension (KTL) and Shatin to Central Link (SCL). These five railway projects will be completed between 2014 and 2020.

II. Public engagements (reference: HyD’s website)

Recently, the Government is reviewing and updating the Railway Development Strategy 2000. Two public engagements were conducted on July 2012 and May 2013. The first public engagement is focus on the major regional railway corridors, which include the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Western Express Line, Northern Link and Coastal Railway between Tuen Mun and Tsuen Wan. Moreover, seven local enhancements are suggested according to the findings of the public expectations and the statistic analysis in the second public engagement. They include North Island Line (NIL), Siu Sai Wan Line (SSWL), South Island Line (West) (SIL(W)), Tuen Mun South Extension, Hung Shui Kiu Station, Tunf Chung West Extension and Kwu Tung Station.
