of the Committee, the report suggested that Murray House

could be resited to the western part of the planning

area where it would complement the existing buildings

to be retained and the new Government Secretariat.

(vi) Traffic and Pedestrian Movements

8.

Traffic would be restricted to the eastern

and western ends of the existing road, the middle

section of 1which should be improved and landscoped

as a pedestrian promenade linking the open space,

recreational and community facilities in the east with

the park land in the west. Access for emergency and

service vehicles would be maintained.

Two pedestrian bridges across Queensway

would link the new Supreme Court building with the

Mass Transit Railway Admiralty Station area and the

commercial development with the open space to the

north.

Consideration should also be given to

provision of a high-level pedestrian deck along

the Queensway frontage and existing footpaths within

the planning area should be improved and extended.
