include the construction of approximately 4,500 feet of sea-walls, 5,500 feet of breakwaters, a passenger ferry berth, 9,000 feet of river training walls, a sewage treatment works, a submarine sewage pipeline two miles long and the widening and realignment of Castle Peak Road within the limits of the proposed new town, which will have an estimated ultimate population of one million persons when fully developed.
Preparation of a detailed programme of works was in hand and preliminary discussions were held with the New Territories Administration on clearance requirements, resiting of villages and other connected matters. Preparation of drawings and documents for an initial site formation contract involving the reclamation of a limited area near Tuen Mun San Hui was well advanced.
Work was nearing completion on the first stage of Pillar Point road to provide access along the west side of Castle Peak Bay.
(v) Sha Tin
Work continued on the construction of a 320-feet long three-span road bridge which will form part of the route from the Lion Rock Tunnel to Sha Tin. The approach embankments were well advanced and the main girders in precast post-tensioned prestressed concrete together with the abutments and piers were completed.
Approval was given to proceed with Stage I of the Sha Tin Development Scheme. This will provide 613 acres of formed land for residential and industrial sites, open space for recreation purposes and areas for Government, institutional and community use. Engineering works include the construction of approximately 5,800 feet of seawalls, a sewage treatment works and the training of approximately 6,300 feet of Shing Mun River together with the construction of all roads and drains within the area of Stage I. This Stage will accommodate about 400,000 people out of the estimated 1-million population for the full scheme.
Preliminary discussions were held with the New Territories Administration on clearance requirements, resiting of villages and other connected matters.
