NEW LAI CHI KOK BEACH ROAD
A new road will be built early next year at Lai Chi Kok in
Kowloon to improve traffic flow in the area.
The road, provisionally named the New Lai Chi Kok Beach Road,
will be approximately 1,400 feet long, and will lead from the existing
Lai Chi Kok Beach Road to Lai Wan Road, running along the north-eastern
boundary of the Mei Foo Sun Chuen Stages V and VI.
A 44-foot wide concrete carriageway will be constructed to
accomodate two-way traffic, and 12-foot footpaths will be provided on
both sides of the road.
Modifications are to be carried out at the junction of the new
=

road and Lai Chi Kok Beach Road to improve traffic movement.
In future, traffic from Kowloon to Lai Chi Kok Beach and the
Lai Chi Kok Amusement Park will be able to move along Lai Chi Kok Road,
turn under the ramp leading to the Lai Chi Kok Bridge, then into the new
road passing to the north of Mei Foo Sun Chuen and thence into Lai Wan
Road.
When the new road is ready, the section of the present Lai Chi Kok
Beach Road between Lai Wan Road and the bridge ramp will be converted into
a one-way road running eastward.
Tenders are now being invited and construction of the new road
is expected to begin in January next year, and will take about 12 months to
complete.
