The drill and blast method will be adopted for tunnel excavation, while the open blast method will be adopted for site formation works at Lam Tin Interchange and Tseung Kwan O Portal. Blasting works will commence in the middle of this year tentatively. The blast will last for less than half a minutes. When blasting is carried out, nearby residents may feel a slight vibration and a noise. The slight vibration and noise are normal and would not affect the structural safety of the adjacent structures. Prior to the commencement of blasting works, we will implement stringent monitoring and control measures. The Contractor will set up a number of monitoring points together with vibration and air overpressure monitoring instruments to monitor the impacts of the blasting works on adjacent structures and facilities, so as to ensure the blasting works are conducted in a safe manner,SRL tte Bit AY ES Monitoring Instruments near Blasting Site EETRRARHARERDRERESR ERE ° Monitoring instruments will be set up to monitor vibration and air overpressure near the blasting site i anaaee Skee REM during the blasting operations.
