In general, Hong Kong has seen an improvement in air quality in 2022. Annual average concentrations of NO2, PM10 and PM2.5 at general and roadside monitoring stations all dropped by over 10% (see Table 1), reaching a lowest point on record.
Hong Kong's air pollution is mainly contributed by motor vehicles, marine vessels and power plants. The two greatest challenges are local street-level pollution and regional smog. Diesel vehicles, particularly trucks, buses and light buses, are the main source of street-level pollution.
