OFF-STREET REFUSE COLLECTION CENTRE
A 1,400 square-foot off-street refuse collection centre is to
be built in King Lam Street, Cheung Sha Wan, Kowloon, to take the pressure
off kerb-side collection points.
It will be enclosed by seven-foot-high reinforced concrete walls
on three sides with a concrete covered area at one end.
The provision of this type of off-street refuse collection point
will relieve the use of heavily burdened kerb-side collection points by
introducing trailer compounds for mobile trailers to collect refuse from
an enclosed area.
Work on the collection centre is expected to begin by the middle
of December and will take two months to complete.
TEMPORARY WATER SUPPLY STOPPAGE
Water supply to a number of premises in Conduit Road, Mid-levels
on Hong Kong Island will be turned off for eight hours as from 10 a.m. on
Monday (October 30).
This is to enable the Waterworks Office to replace a tee at
Conduit Road.
The area to be affected is bounded by No. 7A-37 and 104-158
Conduit Road.
Release time: 2.30 p.m.
