The Environmentally Friendly Linkage System (Chinese: 環保連接系統; Cantonese Yale: Wàahnbóu Lìhnjip Haihtúng), abbreviated to EFLS and commonly called the Kai Tak Monorail (啟德單軌鐵路; Káidāk Dāan'gwái Titlouh), was a government-proposed monorail system to be located in the Kai Tak Development area of Hong Kong[1] with 12 stations. The system was expected to be completed in 2023,[2][3] at a cost of HK$12 billion,[4] and to take up 15 percent of public transport in the Kowloon East Development.

In the 2020 policy address, chief executive Carrie Lam implicitly shelved the monorail plan, citing a feasibility study that suggested the EFLS should comprise a multi-modal transport system involving buses and pedestrian routes, rather than a railway, with the details of this newer proposal still unclear.[5] Footbridges with travellators were proposed subsequently as an alternative.[6]
