Two new U-turns have been constructed to help relieve, as

much as possible, the inevitable disruption to traffic by these diversions.

One will enable cross-harbour tunnel-bound traffic from-the

Mong Kok area to return into Argyle Street and then along Waterloo Road,

and the other will enable southbound traffic in Waterloo Road to turn

north before the Argyle Street junction and back into Waterloo Road,

then left into Prince Edward Road towards Mong Kok.
