CLIMBING LANE FOR TAI PO ROAD

A section of Tai Po Road near the Chinese University is to

be widened to make way for a climbing lane to reduce the heavy traffic

congestion caused at this point by slow moving vehicles.

The climbing lane will be 4,800 feet long with a 10-foot wide

carriageway. When completed, the entire carriageway along this section

will be 34 feet wide with a five-foot pathway.

The project forms part of the Government's overall plan to improve

the New Territories circular road network.

In connection with the road widening, the Government intends

to resume 27,972 square feet of private agricultural land at Chek Nai Ping.

A notice announcing the proposed resumption under the Crown Lands

Resumption Ordinance was published in last week's Gazette.
