Dear Sir,
Missing and sub-standard Pedestrian Connections in Tsuen Wan
Further to my previous letter dated 30.7.2014 providing an interim reply to
your above quoted letter dated 14.7.2014 suggesting 2 locations in Tsuen Wan for
improving the pedestrian connections. 1 would like to advise you on the findings of
your proposals as follows:-
J) __ Missing crossing to connect Tsuen Wan Park and City Point residential buildings
‘A crossing facility has been planned at the concerned location, After
consulting the Tsuen Wan District Council’s Transport and Traffic Committee, the
proposed signalised crossing at Wing Shun Street will be built undemeath the Tsuen
‘Wan Road flyover, i.c. the location as indicated in the map as shown in your letter.
The construction of erossing is undertaken by the West Rail Tsuen Wan West Station
TW6 property development project and is targeted for completion by end March 2015.

2) Missing crossing to connect Tsuen Wan Park and Waterside Plaza residential
buildings
Provision of crossing at the proposed location is not supported from traffic
management viewpoint as it will have road safety concern to position a crossing at bend.
For information, the signalised crossing suggested in item 1 above is in close proximity
to this proposed location. Therefore, the signalised crossing suggested in item 1 above
could serve the purpose for connecting Tsuen Wan Park and Waterside Plaza residential
buildings upon its commissioning by end March 2015.
