Description
Hong Kong Buses explores the city's public transport system, which has played a crucial role in its development. With buses being the primary mode of transportation, Gary Seamarks delves into the history and evolution of Hong Kong's bus network. From the early days of Leyland deckers to the modern tri-axle air-conditioned double-deckers, Seamarks examines the changes that have taken place over several decades. The book features colour images from his visits between 1993 and 2011, providing a visual record of the city's bus scene. Seamarks also touches on the role of buses as mobile billboards for local and major sponsors, adding to their significance in Hong Kong's public transport landscape.
