TAI PO ROAD SECTION TO BE IMPROVED
*****
A SECTION OF TAI PO ROAD BETWEEN SHA TIN AND THE TAI WO PING INTERCHANGE IS TO BE IMPROVED TO ENHANCE TRAFFIC FLOW.
THE SECTION OF SINGLE CARRIAGEWAY, TWO-LANE RURAL ROAD LINKS THE NORTHWEST URBAN AREAS OF KOWLOON AND SHA TIN.
IT HAS STEEP GRADIENTS AND MANY TIGHT CURVES.
THE ROAD IS FREQUENTLY CONGESTED DUE TO THE LARGE VOLUME OF VISITORS TO LION ROCK COUNTRY PARK IN WHICH IT IS PARTLY LOCATED.
TENDERS ARE BEING INVITED FOR THE PROJECT WHICH INCLUDES PROVIDING BETTER PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES AND STABILISING SOME EXISTING CUT SLOPES.
THE SCHEME WILL BE CARRIED OUT IN TWO STAGES. THE FIRST INVOLVES IMPROVING THREE SECTIONS OF ROAD ABOUT TWO KILOMETRES LONG BETWEEN THE KOWLOON GOVERNMENT EXPLOSIVES DEPOT AND LOWER SHING MUN ROAD, IT WILL ALSO BE WIDENED.
