NEW PIER PLANNED AT SAI KUNG TOWN
A new public pier is to be built at Sai Kung Town to meet the
increasing need for landing facilities in the area.
The new pier will serve villagers from remote areas travelling
by sea to market and fishermen bringing in their catches, as well as holiday
makers from urban areas going out to scenic spots and beaches at Sai Kung.
It will be built on the eastern reclamation in front of the town
and will be able to accommodate police launches and motorboat ferries.
The new pier will provide better landing facilities than the
existing piers at Sai Kung Town which are small ones of simple design and
situated in shallow waters.
Anyone who has objections to the proposed project or claims of
private right may write to the Director of Public Works within two months.
