She noted that the local road network in Western has been adjusted since mid- 1996 to gear up for the opening of WHC.

With the completion of Smithfield Extension in late 1997, WHC traffic will have an additional alternative route to and from Pokfulam Road via Belcher Bay Link, she added.

To advise motorists of the most direct and shortest route to their destinations on the opposite side of the harbour, new logos representing these three crossings have been designed.

These new tunnel logos will be displayed on new and existing directional signs along the relevant major routes leading to the crossings.

The colour of the logos shown on direction signs on expressways will be white on green background whereas those on other roads will be white on blue background.
