Hong Kong Transport - Trucks
The Hong Kong Truck Culture
The number of Trucks, Vans* and Special Purpose Vehicles (Light, Medium & Heavy) registered + licenced in Hong Kong seems to fluctuate between 120,000 - 125,000 vehicles and presumably new trucks registered are offset by old trucks being retired or sold over the border in China.
*Vans are classified as Light Goods Vehicles and are not shown in this album
In Hong Kong Trucks are classified as GOODS VEHICLES By the Transport Department - see below
☛Light Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight not exceeding 5.5 tonnes.
☛Medium Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 5.5 tonnes but not exceeding 24 tonnes.
☛Heavy Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 24 tonnes but not exceeding 38 tonnes.
The major truck types you tend to see in urban areas are trucks carrying construction materials or waste, dump trucks, concrete mixers and all sizes of delivery trucks... outside of the urban areas it is container trucks and large trucks carrying construction materials.
The following brands of Trucks can be seen on the streets of Hong Kong and include:-
Beiben ✚ Bell ✚ CAMC ✚ CNHTC ✚ DAF ✚ Dennis ✚ Dong Feng ✚ FAW ✚ Fuso ✚ Foton ✚ Ford ✚ Hino ✚ Howo ✚ Hyundai ✚ Isuzu ✚ Iveco ✚ JAC ✚ Kato ✚ KIA ✚ Liebherr ✚ MAN ✚ Mercedes Benz ✚ Mitsubishi ✚ Nissan ✚ Renault ✚ Scania ✚ Shacman ✚ Sinotruk ✚ Suzuki ✚ Toyota ✚ UD ✚ Volvo ✚ Zoomlion
Hong Kong is a brand conscious place even for trucks (!) hence the popularity of the European brands, Scania and Man are very popular and even the older trucks look the business and they are utterly reliable.
Isuzu is the market leader in terms of sale volume for all types of trucks.

The purpose and value of bridges cannot be overstated. Any time an individual or group has had to halt a journey because of a canyon or swift flowing river with no way to cross over and the only option is to search for a way around the obstacle, the eventual construction of a bridge smooths the way forward. It can be as simple as a few wooden planks laid across a narrow ditch to an architectural wonder spanning a great body of water, such as the majestic Golden Gate Bridge. My collection of photos includes those simple structures that offer little afterthought to the crossing. In addition, there are photos taken of bridges that have been around and functioning for hundreds of years. Most people can reference a bridge that stands out for its magnificent profile, such as the Brooklyn Bridge that crosses the East River, or the Sydney Harbour Bridge, or the Ponte Vecchio over the River Arno in Florence, or...well, there are such bridges around the globe that are breathtaking to view, but most are only known locally and appreciated for just being a functional bridge. This album contains the first group of 10 bridges with many additional groups to follow. Most of these bridges I could pinpoint on a map, but some will include a caption that is nothing more than a shrug of my shoulders. If anyone should recognize a bridge's location, I would welcome such information.
The purpose-built tour bus for the tour. Ninety mile beach is actually sixty miles of incredibly beautiful beach. We saw maybe 10 fisherman using the beach that day.
