CHAI WAN RECLAMATION
Work is now in progress on a 1,700-foot retaining seawall for
the Chai Wan reclamation where the site of the proposed Mass Transport
Depot will be located.
Part of the reclamation will initially be used as a works area
for the construction of the immersed-tube units for the underground
railway system.
Construction of the seawall is expected to be completed within
12 months at a cost of about $5.3 million.
The Marine Department has issued a notice to mariners warning
all vessels to keep away from Lo Shue Point in Chai Wan, where the
reclamation work is taking place.
