龍津石橋保育長廊：天然花崗岩的歷史傳承與現代工藝

項目概況

龍津石橋是香港曾經最長、最堅固的石砌碼頭，連接九龍寨城與大海的重要通道。這座橋樑建於1873至1875年間，全長約200米。在啟德發展計劃中，保育長廊約320米長、30米寬，將啟德站廣場與太子道東行人隧道連接，通往九龍寨城公園。2021年立法會批出6.9億元撥款進行啟德龍津石橋保育長廊的工程，工程預計在2025年第二季完成。

    • 表面處理：燒面（Flamed）
    • 品牌：PINKERLY
    • 產地：中國

優異的技術性能

根據香港Fugro Technical Services Limited的測試報告：

  • 防滑性能（Slip Resistance）：達到R12級別，確保公共空間的行人安全
  • 抗壓強度（Compressive Strength）：1.5 N/mm²，無破裂現象
  • 抗彎強度（Flexural Strength）：平均17.3 MPa
  • 抗橫向斷裂載荷（Transverse Breaking Load）：平均15.5 kN
  • 吸水率（Water Absorption）：僅0.2%，表現優異
  • 摩擦係數（Coefficient of Friction）：乾燥條件0.90，濕潤條件0.80

設計特色與文化意涵

從現場照片可見，設計巧妙地融合了歷史保育與現代功能：

  1. 色彩搭配：採用灰色系為主調，輔以米色點綴，既莊重又不失活潑
  2. 圖案設計：地面的條紋狀鋪設呼應了橋樑的線性特質
  3. 無障礙設計：平整的表面處理和適當的防滑處理，確保所有使用者的安全
  4. 耐久性考慮：選用高品質花崗岩，確保長期使用的穩定性

歷史背景與文化價值

龍津石橋始建於1873至1875年，位處九龍城岸邊，為該區的登岸碼頭。龍津石橋不僅見證九龍寨城的發展變遷，更見證香港開埠前後中英之間的政治角力，具有重要的歷史意義。遺址在1940年代被日軍埋沒以擴建啟德機場。2008年4月，在啟德發展環境影響評估的考古調查中首次發現橋樑遺跡。

Lung Tsun Stone Bridge Preservation Corridor: Heritage Preservation Through Premium Natural Granite

Project Overview

Lung Tsun Stone Bridge was once the longest and most solid stone pier in Hong Kong, serving as an important connection between Kowloon Walled City and the sea. The Bridge was built between 1873 and 1875 with a total length of about 200m. In the Kai Tak Development, the preservation corridor is about 320 metres in length and 30 metres in width, connecting the Kai Tak Station Square with the pedestrian tunnel at Prince Edward Road East, leading to the Kowloon Walled City Park. In 2021, the Legislative Council granted a funding of 690 million HKD for the construction of the Lung Tsun Stone Bridge Preservation Corridor, which is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025.

Quality Material Supply by Tai Fong Company

Tai Fong Company is honored to supply Natural Granite tiles for the Kai Tak Development – Lung Tsun Stone Bridge Preservation Corridor project (Contact No: KL-2015-02). The photographs demonstrate the successful application of these premium natural granite materials in:

Historical Background and Cultural Value

The Lung Tsun Stone Bridge was a pier built between 1873 and 1875 from Kowloon Walled City to Kowloon Bay, later known as Kowloon City Pier. Lung Tsun Stone Bridge not only encapsulates the development changes of Kowloon Walled City, but also witnesses the political struggles between China and Britain before and after the opening of Hong Kong, holding significant historical importance. The bridge was buried during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong (1941-1945), when the area was used for the expansion of the Kai Tai airfield. In 2008, during an archaeological exploration by the Civil Engineering and Development Department for the Kai Tak Development Plan, the remains of Lung Tsun Stone Bridge were discovered.
