COOKED-FOOD BAZAAR AND REST GARDEN

FOR WONG CHUK HANG RESIDENTS

*****

WORKERS FROM WONG CHUK HANG AND NEIGHBOURING AREAS WILL HAVE MORE FACILITIES FOR CHEAP HOT MEALS NEXT OCTOBER WHEN THE FIRST COOKED-FOOD BAZAAR IN THE DISTRICT IS COMPLETED.

CONSTRUCTION OF THE COOKED-FOOD BAZAAR, TOGETHER WITH A REST GARDEN, WILL BEGIN IN JUNE. THE TWO PROJECTS WILL COVER A TOTAL AREA OF 29,500 SQUARE FEET.

THE BAZAAR WILL OCCUPY AN AREA OF ABOUT 3,500 SQUARE FEET SOUTH OF YIP FAT STREET NEAR THE ABERDEEN SPORTS GROUND. IT WILL ACCOMODATE 12 COOKED-FOOD STALLS UNDER COVER.

EACH STALL WILL HAVE INDIVIDUAL ELECTRICITY AND WATER SUPPLIES. HOWEVER, STALL OWNERS WILL HAVE TO SET UP THEIR OWN STALLS. THE BOUNDARY OF THE BAZAAR AREA WILL BE MARKED OFF BY CHAIN-LINK FENCE.

A REST GARDEN WILL ALSO BE CONSTRUCTED TO PROVIDE THE PUBLIC WITH A CONVENIENT SITTING-OUT AREA AND TO SEPARATE THE COOKED-FOOD STALLS FROM THE ADJACENT BUILDINGS.

THE GARDEN MEASURING SOME 26,000 SQUARE FEET, WILL BE DECORATED WITH PLANTS AND FLOWERS AND PROVIDED WITH BENCHES.
