KOTEWALL ROAD FLATS RE-OPEN
More flats in the Kotewall Road landslip area have been declared
safe for re-occupation
—
almost one year after their closure.
The Building Authority announced today that a closure order imposed
on the B Flats of Blook ↑ Emerald Gardens, No. 36 Kotewall Road had now been
lifted.
The Principal Government Building Surveyor said that the reconstruction
work on this building, which was damaged in the landslide last June, has
progressed to the stage where it is now possible to safely re-occupy the
flats on the eastern side of the building.
Repair work on the remaining portion is continuing and it is
anticipated that the entire building will be re-opened in about one month
when closure orders on the A Flats are raised.
