RECLAMATION FOR TUEN MUN MOTOR/AY
A section of seashore near Tai Lam Chung in the Now Territories
will be reclaimed as part of a plan to construct a new six-lane motorway.
This high-capacity motorway, named Tuen Mun Road, will be some
nine miles long and will connect the two fast-developing towns of Tsuen
Wan and Tuen Mun (Castle Peak).
The road will be constructed in two stages. The first stage
includes the building of one three-lane carriageway over the whole length
of the road and the building of both carriageways at certain locations.
One of these locations is at Tai Lam Chung where the road will
cross the bay on a causeway.
This section of road will be about 2,200 feet long and will
have a grade separated interchange at the western end,
Approaching the eastern end of the causeway, the existing Castle
Peak Road will be realigned onto a reclaimed embankment stretching a
quarter of a mile around Brothers Point.
The extent of the proposed works is described in detail in
a notice in the latest government gazette.
Anyone having objections to the proposal or who has any clain
of private right should submit them in writing to the Director of Public
Works within two months of the date of gazetting.
