ALDRICH BAY RECLAMATION ENTERS NEW PHASE

Another phase of the Aldrich Bay reclamation scheme will soon

get under way with the construction of a rubble mound and a seawall

fronting the A Kung Ngam reclamation.

The rubble mound and seawall, measuring 490 feet and 270 feet

respectively, will form part of a bigger project to reclaim the foreshore

and seabed along Aldrich Bay and A Kung Ngam.

The reclamation project is intended to eliminate the unsanitary

conditions there, and at the same time to provide land required for

road and drainage improvement works, for the establishment of boat-building

yards and for other development.

Construction of the rubble mound and seawall is expected to start

in September, taking about a year to complete.
