CLEAN-UP AT WONG TAI SIN ESTATE
******
An environmental improvement exercise was carried out at
Lower Wong Tai Sin Estate today to tidy up the public housing estate
where more than 75,000 people live.
About 80 illegal hawker stalls and other structures at the
side of Blook 11 and the area west of Ching Tak Street were demolished
in the operation.
Most of the hawkers have been re-sited into properly marked out
stalls at the open courtyard of Block 11. A few others will be allocated
sites near Blocks 26 and 27 when the area is cleared.
A spokesman for the Housing Department said that apart from
giving the estate a better and tidier appearance, the exercise had also
helped clear a site needed for the Mass Transit Railway project.
