ACCESS ROAD TO LUNG KWU TAN REPAIRED

*****

RESIDENTS OF LUNG KWU TAN IN TUEN MUN WHO USED TO TRAVEL ON AN UNPAVED AND UNEVEN ROAD WILL NOW HAVE A NEWLY-REPAIRED ACCESS ROAD.

THE TUEN MUN DISTRICT OFFICE HAD SPENT NEARLY $300 000 TO IMPROVE THE ACCESS ROAD AT SHA PO KONG IN LUNG KWỤ TAN, WHICH HAD BEEN DAMAGED DURING A TYPHOON 18 MONTHS AGO.

ALTHOUGH EMERGENCY REPAIR WORK WAS MADE SOON AFTER THE TYPHOON, THE TUEN MUN DISTRICT OFFICE HAD APPROVED WORK TO PAVE THE ACCÉSS ROAD AT SHA PO KONG FOLLOWING REQUESTS FROM VILLAGERS,

THE ACCESS ROAD IS ABOUT 700 METRES LONG, STRETCHING ALONG THE WESTERN SIDE OF CASTLE PEAK. CONSTRUCTION WORK STARTED

IN DECEMBER 1984 AND WAS COMPLETED THIS WEEK.

THE ROAD IMPROVEMENT WORK IS THE BIGGEST OF SEVERAL PROJECTS WHICH THE TUEN MUN DISTRICT OFFICE HAD APPROVED UNDER THE LOCAL PUBLIC WORKS PROGRAMME IN THE DISTRICT.
