LION ROCK INTERCHANGE TRAFFIC CHANGES
New traffic arrangements will be introduced at the Lion Rock
Interchange as from tomorrow (Tuesday).
A single lane over the completed flyover will be opened for
traffic travelling south to Waterloo Road. Traffic wishing to turn right
into Lung Cheung Road will be diverted via Cornwall Street.
Waterloo Road will also be re-opened to northbound tunnel traffic.
Westbound traffic on Lung Cheung Road will have access to the tunnel by
turning left into a loop road and thence via Waterloo Road.
As only one lane will be brought into use initially, heavy vehicles
are advised to continue using the present route to the tunnel via Junction
Road, Fung Mo Street, and Lung Cheung Road to avoid possible congestion.
At a later stage, the southern carriageway of Lung Cheung Road
from Fung Mo Street, will also be opened for traffic, a spokesman for the
Transport Departuent said.
Motorists are urged to observe the direction signs at the approaches
to the interchange particularly tomorrow morning while these changes are
being intorduced.
