than half of the construction work to the 1,100 feet of seawall that will front the bus and ferry concourse reclamation was completed, and work is also proceeding on the pier construction.

Kwun Tong Passenger Ferry Pier
6.41. The construction commenced on a reinforced-concrete passenger ferry pier at Kwun Tong. This will be sited approximately 600 feet south-east of the existing Kwun Tong Public Pier which is at present having to be used for all ferry services.
Salt Water Intake at Cheung Sha Wan
6.42. Construction of a salt water intake off the seawall at Cheung Sha Wan was carried out. This was designed to fit in with the proposed future cargo-handling landing stage also to be constructed off this seawall.
Sai Kung Typhoon Shelter
6.43. The armouring of 1,000 feet of breakwater was completed, thus providing about 28 acres of sheltered anchorage for local craft. This typhoon shelter will relieve the overcrowding which occurs during typhoons in the existing small sheltered anchorage at Sai Kung Town.
Pier at Chek Keng
6.44. The construction of a pier at Chek Keng, Long Harbour was completed. It will serve not only Chek Keng but also eight other villages in the area and will enable ferries to berth alongside instead of disembarking by sampan.
Castle Peak New Town
6.45. Construction of 1,000 feet of seawall was started and work proceeded satisfactorily. Completion is scheduled towards the end of 1970. When built, this seawall and the proposed reclamation behind will enable ferries to berth alongside instead of disembarking passengers by sampan.
