New geological maps published
The Geotechnical Engineering Office (GEO) of the Civil Engineering Department has published two new 1:5,000 geological maps on Tsuen Wan and Tsing Yi.
"Entitled 'Sheets 6-SE-D (Tsuen Wan)' and '10-NE-B, D (Tsing Yi)', the maps are the latest in the Hong Kong Geological Survey's series of maps which cover areas of new infrastructural development in the territory," a spokesman for the department said today (Sunday).
"A geological report on Tsing Yi, known as Sheet Report No 3 'Geology of Tsing Yi' is also published," he said.
The maps and report cover the entire island of Tsing Yi and the surrounding offshore area as far as the Sham Tseng-Tsuen Wan coastline.
"They include the landfall of the Tsing Ma Bridge and the Kwai Chung and Tsing Yi sections of Route 3, part of the highway network linking the new airport at Chek Lap Kok and urban Kowloon. In the south, they cover the site of the proposed Container Terminal 9," he said.
