Kwu Tung North and Fanling North New Development Area (KTN/FLN NDA) is the first NDA in the Northern Metropolis (NM) to enter the construction stage. Under the NM Action Agenda, KTN/FLN NDA is located within the Boundary Commerce and Industry Zone, alongside the existing new towns in Fanling/Sheung Shui, and New Territories North New Town under planning. While KTN/FLN NDA has been planned as a predominantly residential community, KTN will be one of the areas in NM where government offices relocated from urban areas will concentrate.

KTN/FLN NDA, with a total development area of 320 hectares (ha), is being implemented in two phases: First Phase (73 ha) and Remaining Phase (247 ha). The phasing plan of KTN/FLN NDA is at Annex 1 and 2 to Enclosure. The site formation and engineering infrastructure works for the First Phase development commenced in 2019. The first private housing development was completed at the end of 2022. First batch of public housing development will be ready for population intake in 2026. Upon full development, KTN/FLN NDA will provide a total of about 86 200 housing units (of which about 57 500 are public housing), accommodating an additional population of about 227 000.
In addition to housing supply, a wide range of Government, Institution or Community (GIC) facilities and a floor area of approximately 554 000 square metres (m2 ) for general commercial uses will be provided to support future residents of the NDA and nearby. Among the GIC facilities, the Government plans to construct a government office complex in KTN to relocate some offices from the urban areas, thereby driving the development of the area. As a whole, KTN/FLN NDA will provide about 53 000 job opportunities.
The construction of Fanling Bypass Eastern Section serving FLN is underway for completion in 2025. Other road projects include the widening of Fanling Highway (Kwu Tung Section), and construction of Fanling Bypass Western Section and flyover along Po Shek Wu Road to Fanling Highway (westbound) to improve KTN/FLN's external connectivity and increase the capacity of existing road network to meet the NDA demand will be carried out under the Remaining Phase development for completion in 2031.
