ACCESS ROAD TO MA CHAI HANG, CHUK YUEN PLANNED
*****
THE ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PROPOSES TO CONSTRUCT AN EASTERN ACCESS ROAD TO CONNECT MA CHAT HANG AND CHUK YUEN WITH THE EXISTING ROAD NETWORK IN THE WONG TAI SIN AREA.
THE PROJECT COMPRISES THE PROVISION OF A DIRECT CONNECTION AT LUNG FUNG STREET BETWEEN THE UPPER SECTION OF SHATIN PASS ROAD AND CHUK YUEN ESTATE AS WELL AS INTRODUCING A GYRATORY SYSTEM IN FUNG WONG NEW VILLAGE AS PART OF AN AREA-WIDE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SCHEME.
THE SCHEME IS AIMED AT IMPROVING TRAFFIC IN THE AREA AND TO COPE WITH THE ANTICIPATED TRAFFIC DEMAND GENERATED BY DEVELOPMENT IN CHUK YUEN, MA CHAI HANG AND DIAMOND HILL.
WORK WILL INCLUDE THE RECONSTRUCTION OF MING FUNG STREET AND THE MODIFICATION OF SHATIN PASS ROAD, MING FUNG STREET, FUNG TAK ROAD AND SHEUNG FUNG STREET.
NEW ROADS TO BE CONSTRUCTED WILL LINK SHATIN PASS ROAD NEAR LUNG FUNG STREET WITH CHUK YUEN DEVELOPMENT ESTATES AND YING FUNG LANE WITH FUNG TAK ROAD. FUNG TAK ROAD EAST OF SHEUNG FUNG STREET WILL ALSO BE WIDENED.
AS PART OF THE PROJECT, THE PORTION OF KAM FUNG STREET BETWEEN SHEUNG FUNG STREET AND NGAN FUNG STREET WILL BE CLOSED AND DEVELOPED AS A LANDSCAPED EXTENSION OF THE EXISTING SITTING OUT AREA.
A PEDESTRIAN SUBWAY WITH ACCESS BY STAIRS WILL BE CONSTRUCTED BENEATH SHATIN PASS ROAD NEAR FUNG TAK ROAD. THIS WILL PROVIDE A SAFE GRADE-SEPARATED CROSSING FOR PEDESTRIANS AND PERMIT FREE TRAFFIC FLOW BETWEEN FUNG TAK ROAD AND SHATIN PASS ROAD BY REMOVING THE EXISTING SIGNALS AT THE JUNCTION OF THESE ROADS.
THE PLANS AND SCHEME MAY BE INSPECTED AT THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN DISTRICT OFFICE, CENTRAL ENQUIRY SUB-OFFICE, CENTRAL GOVERNMENT OFFICES, WEST WING, MAIN ENTRANCE LOBBY, HONG KONG- THE DISTRICT LANDS OFFICE, KOWLOON EAST, YAU MA TEI CAR PARK BUILDING, 10TH FLOOR, 250 SHANGHAI STREET, KOWLOON- AND THE WONG TAI SIN DISTRICT OFFICE, SAN PO KONG GOVERNMENT OFFICES BUILDING, GROUND AND FOURTH FLOORS, KING FUK STREET, SAN PO KONG, KOWLOON.
