The Cheung Chau Ferry Pier is set for reconstruction. On the afternoon of 17 October 2023, the Civil Engineering and Development Department and Ove Arup & Partners held a consultation meeting at the Henry G. Leong Yau Ma Tei Community Centre, consulting various organisations representing persons with disabilities, with Senior Project Officer Wilson Lau Kwok Lam in attendance.

Representatives from the Civil Engineering and Development Department and Ove Arup & Partners outlined the initial concept for the reconstruction of the Cheung Chau Ferry Pier, proposing to construct a new pier approximately 50 metres north of the existing one, featuring underground, first-floor, and rooftop levels. Facilities such as wayfinding paths, passenger lifts, and Braille signage will be provided within the premises.

During the meeting, the Senior Project Officer expressed concerns about the accessibility facilities at the pier and emphasised the need for an electric wheelchair charging station. Observing that there are only two passenger lifts within the pier and considering the stair-only access to different levels, there are apprehensions about the adequacy of lift numbers and sizes to accommodate passenger flow, requesting the design team to review this aspect.
