KOWLOON BAY DEVELOPMENT

Work will begin shortly to excavate some 500,000 cubic yards of

earth from a hillside near Cornwall Street in Kowloon Tong for the

reclamation of Kowloon Bay.

To be carried out at the same time will be associated slope

protection and drainage works.

On completion of the project, a piece of flat land, measuring

about six acres, will be formed on the hillside.

This piece of land will be for future recreational use while

the reclaimed land at Kowloon Bay will be used for building road connections

to the east of the Airport Tunnel Road now under construction.

Work on the project is expected to start in the middle of next

month and will take about 16 months to complete.

The project has been designed and work will be supervised by

the Development and Airport Division of Civil Engineering Office of the

Public Works Department.
