Cheung Sha Wan Reclamation
8.05. The construction of a new sand depot was nearing completion. This will replace the existing one at Hung Hom which will soon be surrounded by the new reclamation work and hence cut off from access by sea.
8.06. Several plans for the construction of boat building and repairing yards on the new reclamation were examined.
Reclamation off Jordan Road
8.07. The seawall and reclamation including a pumphouse commenced in 1961, were nearly completed. This work will eventually allow for an increase in area for the Jordan Road ferry services concourse. As an interim measure it has been decided to construct another temporary vehicular ferry landing point on the new reclamation. This will allow a total of three vehicular ferries to operate from Jordan Road.
