HK$3 million ferry concourse
A modern HK$3 million ferry concourse is to be constructed to meet the transport needs of the growing population of industrial Kwun Tong in Kowloon. The concourse will take up 220,000 sq.
ft. of land between Wai Yip Street and the Kwun Tong waterfront, and will serve the new HK$3.5 million Kwun Tong pier, to be completed by 1971.
It will have a bus terminus, a public light bus terminus, a taxi rank and a temporary car park. Work is expected to start at the end of the year, and the project should be completed by the middle of 1972. Part of Hoi Bun Road will be reconstruct- ed to provide pedestrian walks.
Passengers using the Kwun Tong ferry have increased from 10.6 million in 1967 to 18.6 mil- lion last year.
