NEW TRAFFIC ARRANGEMENTS TO FACILITATE ROAD WORKS
The Transport Department today announced new traffic arrangements
in Western District on Hong Kong Island, which will be effective from
Tuesday (December 26).
The southern half carriageway of Queen's Road West, as well as the
section of Water Street between Queen's Road West and Second Street, will be
re-opened to through traffic.
The arrangements have been made as Stage I of the road reconstruction
work at the junction of Queen's Road West and Water Street is expected to be
completed by Tuesday.
To facilitate Stage II of the work (northern half carriageway), the
section of Water Street between Des Voeux Road West and Queen's Road West wil
be closed to through traffic for about six weeks from Tuesday.
On Wednesday (December 27), all motor vehicles with unladen weights
exceeding two tons will be prohibited from entering Babington Path between
Lyttleton Road and Robinson Road.
This arrangement, which will last about one month, is to facilitate
the laying of drainage connection pipes in Babington Path.
Appropriate traffic signs will be erected to guide motorists.
