Pavilion at Siu Sai Wan morning walk trail opens today
Morning walkers on the hill behind Fullview Garden in Siu Sai Wan will be able to take a rest and enjoy a panorama view of Lei Yue Mun and Tseung Kwan O with the opening of a pavilion today (Sunday).
As part of the district-based Urban Environmental Improvement (UEI) scheme under the Home Affairs Department (HAD), work on this $290,000 project began in January and was completed in March.
HAD has been implementing UEI projects under the scheme to improve the living environment in urban areas since 1994. These included improvement works for local roads and paths, amenity planting and other environmental projects identified and endorsed by the district boards.
A total of 16 UEI projects costing over $5.3 million have been undertaken by HAD's Urban Works Section in 1995-96. Of these, 10 projects costing about $2.5 million were carried out in the Eastern district.
The acting Director of Home Affairs, Mr Lee Lap-sun, and the Eastern District Board Chairman, Mr Chan Bing-woon officiated at the opening ceremony this morning.
