NEW ROADS FOR HONG KONG ISLAND

Two new roads will be built in Quarry Bay and in Stanley on

Hong Kong Island to serve residential building developments taking place

in these areas.

Associated drainage works will be carried out at the same time.

The 750 foot long road to be constructed in Quarry Bay will be

32 feet wide with an eight-foot-wide footpath on either side.

It will branch out from King's Road near its junction with

Mount Parker Road and to the east of a large building development site

there.

The new road in Stanley is planned to serve the residential

building development area west of Chung Hom Kok Road.

It will branch off Chung Hom Kok Road near R.BLs. 854 and 856 and

will be about 700 feet long.

The roadway, 24 feet wide with a six-foot-wide footpath on either

side, will be constructed with flexible bituminous material.

Work on both schemes is expected to begin in November and be

completed in about five months.
