IMPROVED MAINTENANCE FACILITIES FOR GOVT. VEHICLES ON LANTAU

Better maintenance facilities will soon be available for government

vehiclea on Lantau Island.

The existing servicing depot at Silvermine Bay for the PWD Electrical

and Mechanical Office will be extended to include a new servicing shed, an

oil store and a single storey dormitory.

Staff will then be able to stay overnight on the island, thus

reducing the amount of unproductive travelling time.

The building project is expected to cost about $200,000.

Release Time: 6.45 p.m.
