Improvement to footbridge in Kwun Tong

The Government proposes to construct a new footbridge across Kwun Tong Road at Tsun Yip Lane to replace the existing one at the same location.

The main span of the new footbridge will be wider and will have a ramp and escalators at each end. This will improve the pedestrian flow across Kwun Tong Road.

The proposal includes the construction of a new footbridge with a steel main span. Concrete ramps and escalators will be provided at the ends of the main span.

The project is scheduled to commence in March next year and will take about 20 months to complete.

A notice on the extent of the works was gazetted today (Friday).

The notice can be seen on notice boards posted near the site.

The plan and scheme of the works can be seen at:

* the Central and Western District Office, Public Enquiry Service Centre, ground floor, Harbour Building, 38 Pier Road, Central, Hong Kong;

* The District Lands Office. Kowloon East, 10th Floor. Yau Ma Tei Car Park Building, 250 Shanghai Street, Kowloon; and

*The Kwun Tong District Office, Kwun Tong District Branch Offices Building. Tung Yan Street, first, third and fourth Floor, Kowloon.

Any person who wishes to object to the works or the use, or both must send his objection in writing to the Secretary for Transport on or before July 25.
