There will be a modular market in this section providing 40 stalls
for hawkers.
There will be three blocks in the southern section, one 22-storey
and the rest 15 storeys high.
There will also be a modular market with 40 hawker stalls.
The roof of this market complex will be used as a play deck providing
recreational facilities.
Connected to the play deck will be a welfare hall which provides
premises for voluntary agencies to carry out community work.
A special feature in the southern section is a three-storey workshop.
Due to the peculiar slope of the site, the lower ground floor of this
building will only have half the area of the upper floors.
Workshop Facilities
Families living in housing estates often engage in handicraft as
a means of income. When goods such as plastic flowers and beads are taken
into the homes, they impose a fire hazard.
In view of this, workshop facilities have been included to provide
working space together with vehicular delivery for family industry, thus
reducing the danger of fire in the home.
Two sub-termini have been planned in the estate for buses routed
to Kowloon and Tsuen Wan.
Public light bus stands have been planned along the main access
road near the centre of the estate.
Local residents will rely heavily on the Mass Transit System if
it is implemented.
