IT WILL BE 7.3 METRES WIDE AND SPECIALLY DESIGNED FOR 70-KILOMETRES-PER-HOUR DRIVING. WORK WILL START IN THE MIDDLE OF NEXT YEAR.

THE EXISTING NAI CHUNG CAR PARK WOULD BE ENLARGED TO ACCOMMODATE A BUS TERMINAL, A MAXICAB STAND AND COACH AND CAR PARKING SPACES.

INCLUDED WOULD BE CONSTRUCTION OF A CYCLE TRACK AND FOOTPATH FROM NAI CHUNG TO LOK WO SHA AND ALONG THE ACCESS ROAD TO LOK WO SHA BEACH, AS WELL AS CYCLE PARKS NEAR THE BEACH AND ADJACENT TO THE CAR PARK AT NAI CHUNG.

A SECTION OF SAI SHA ROAD IN FRONT OF NAI CHUNG CAR PARK WILL BE WIDENED TO PROVIDE AN EXTRA LANE FOR TURNING RIGHT INTO THE CAR PARK.

PUBLIC TOILETS AND A REFUSE COLLECTION POINT AT NAI CHUNG CAR PARK WOULD BE DEMOLISHED AND REBUILT TO CATER FOR THE INCREASED NUMBER OF VISITORS EXPECTED TO VISIT THE AREA WHEN ROADWORKS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED IN THE MIDDLE OF 1988.

THE PROJECT WILL INCLUDE ASSOCIATED ROAD, DRAINAGE AND LANDSCAPING WORKS.

SOME AGRICULTURAL LAND WOULD NEED TO BE RESUMED.

IN CONNECTION WITH THE WORK, VEHICULAR ACCESSES TO A NUMBER OF NEARBY VILLAGES AND TO THE OUTWARD BOUND SCHOOL WOULD NEED TO BE CLOSED, BUT ALTERNATIVE ACCESSES WOULD BE PROVIDED.

AT THE SAME TIME, ACCESS TO PARTS OF ROADS WITHIN THE WORKS AREA WILL BE TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED WHILE THE ROAD IS BEING BUILT, BUT TEMPORARY ACCESSES WILL BE PROVIDED SO THAT MINIMUM INCONVENIENCE IS CAUSED TO THE PUBLIC.
