THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT WILL BUILD A 500-METRE SEAWALL FOR THE SECOND STAGE OF THE RECLAMATION IN ABERDEEN WHICH WILL ON COMPLETION PROVIDE ABOUT THREE HECTARES OF LAND FOR DEVELOPMENT.
THE RECLAMATION WILL BE OFF ABERDEEN MAIN ROAD BETWEEN WU NAM STREET AND THE NORTHERN APPROACH ROADS TO THE NEW AP LEI CHAU BRIDGE.
