PARTIAL CLOSURE OF PROMENADE FOR CABLE WORKS
*****
THE GOVERNMENT IS PROPOSING TO TEMPORARILY CLOSE PART OF THE SEAVIEW PROMENADE AND THE LAND BETWEEN DEEP WATER BAY AND REPULSE BAY.
THIS IS TO ENABLE HONG KONG ELECTRIC COMPANY LIMITED TO LAY 132 KILO-VOLT ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION CABLES LINKING WONG CHUK HANG ZONE STATION WITH THE PROPOSED CHUNG HOM KOK ZONE STATION.
THE NEW CABLE CIRCUIT IS NECESSARY TO MEET THE INCREASING DEMAND FOR ELECTRICITY AND TO MAINTAIN ADEQUATE POWER SUPPLY TO THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF HONG KONG ISLAND.
THE PROPOSED CLOSURE WILL REDUCE THE WIDTH OF THE PROMENADE TO A MINIMUM OF ONE METRE.
ACCESS FOR PEDESTRIANS ALONG THE PROMENADE WILL BE MAINTAINED AT ALL TIMES AND DISTURBANCE TO PROMENADE USERS WILL BE KEPT TO A MINIMUM.
THE PLAN AND SCHEME CAN BE SEEN AT CENTRAL AND WESTERN DISTRICT OFFICE DISTRICT LANDS OFFICE, HONG KONG SOUTH; AND SOUTHERN DISTRICT OFFICE.
WRITTEN OBJECTIONS SHOULD REACH THE SECRETARY FOR TRANSPORT EY OCTOBER 21.
