Military storage facilities at Shek Kong Camp
About two-thirds of the works in the reprovisioning of military storage facilities at Shek Kong Camp have been completed, the Director of Architectural Services, Mr Kenneth Chan, said today (Thursday).
"Works are progressing smoothly and are expected to be completed on time in March next year," he said.
Mr Chan was speaking at today's topping-out ceremony of the reprovisioned military storage facilities at Shek Kong Camp.
Also officiating at today's ceremony were the Counsellor of the Office of the Chinese Senior Representative, Sino-British Joint Liaison Group, Mr Yang Jianhua, and Mr Wong Kam Shing, Managing Director of the Wang Chong Construction Company Limited.
The reprovisioning of military storage facilities at Shek Kong Camp is one of the four projects being undertaken by the Architectural Services Department for the future Chinese garrison in Hong Kong.
Other projects include the Naval Base at South Shore of Stonecutters Island, the Military Hospital at Gun Club Hill Barracks and the Joint Movement Unit at Chek Lap Kok Airport.
"We did encounter some difficulties during the design and construction stages. We have to work on a very tight schedule and are obliged to complete the whole project, from detailed design, fund application, tendering, site formation, piling to actual superstructure construction, in only three years' time.
