NEW ROADS FOR HOUSING ESTATE

*****

THE NEW TERRITORIES DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT PROPOSES TO BUILD A NUMBER OF ROAD WORKS TO PROVIDE VEHICULAR AND PEDESTRIAN ACCESS TO THE TIN PING ESTATE NOW UNDER CONSTRUCTION IN SHEK WU HUI.

THE PROPOSED WORKS INVOLVE THE CONSTRUCTION OF A FOOTPATH AND A NEW SUBWAY RAMP AT A NEW ROAD, THE COMPLETION OF THE JUNCTION OF TWO OTHER ROADS TOGETHER WITH ASSOCIATED DRAINAGE WORKS.

AN EXISTING FOOTPATH IN THE AREA WILL BE CLOSED AND REPLACED BY PERMANENT FOOTPATHS ALONG FUTURE ROADS.

DURING THE CONSTRUCTION PERIOD, TEMPORARY ACCESS WILL BE MAINTAINED TO MINIMISE INCONVENIENCE TO THE PUBLIC.

A NOTICE CONCERNING THE PROPOSED WORKS WAS PUBLISHED IN THE LATEST ISSUE OF THE GOVERNMENT GAZETTE.

A PLAN SHOWING THE PROPOSED WORKS CAN BE SEEN AT THE CENTRAL AND WESTERN DISTRICT OFFICE, CENTRAL ENQUIRY SUB-OFFICE, CENTRAL GOVERNMENT OFFICES, WEST WING, MAIN ENTRANCE LOBBY, AND AT THE NORTH DISTRICT LANDS OFFICE AND THE NORTH DISTRICT OFFICE, JOCKEY CLUB ROAD, FANLING, NEW TERRITORIES.

ANY PERSON OBJECTING TO THE PROPOSAL MUST WRITE TO THE SECRETARY FOR LANDS AND WORKS BEFORE MAY 14, 1985.
