IN ADDITION, THE COST OF MONTHLY PASSES FOR TAI KOK TSUI AND FUK TONG ROAD OPEN AIR CAR PARKS WILL BE RAISED BY $100 FROM $300 TO $400,

THE SPOKESMAN SAID THE INCREASE WHICH WAS APPROVED BY THE GOVERNOR-IN-COUNCIL YESTERDAY (TUESDAY), IS AIMED AT IMPROVING THE TURNOVER RATES IN THOSE MORE HEAVILY USED CAR PARKS WHERE IT WAS BECOMING VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND SPACES FOR SHORT-TERM PARKING DURING THE DAY.

NO INCREASES HAVE BEEN MADE IN OTHER CAR PARKS WHERE SPACES ARE MORE READILY AVAILABLE.

IN ORDER NOT TO DISCOURAGE OVERNIGHT OFF-STREET PARKING, THERE WILL BE NO INCREASE IN THE CHEAP RATES, THE SPOKESMAN ADDED.

THE NEW FEES AT THE AFFECTED CAR PARKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:-
