The Transport Department (TD) today (April 18) reminded members of the public that to facilitate urgent road repair work, the following temporary traffic arrangements will be implemented at the Kai Tak Tunnel and the East Kowloon Way from this Saturday (April 20) to next Monday (April 22):
| Date | Time | Temporary Traffic Arrangements |
| April 20 (Saturday) |
8am to 5pm daily |
The slow lane of a section of the East Kowloon Way eastbound between Kowloon City Road and the Kai Tak Tunnel eastbound portal will be temporarily closed to all vehicular traffic. The fast lane of the East Kowloon Way eastbound will remain open during the maintenance works. The two-lane traffic of the Kai Tak Tunnel eastbound will also be maintained. |
| April 21 and 22 (Sunday and Monday) |
The fast lane of the westbound tube of the Kai Tak Tunnel and a section of the fast lane of the East Kowloon Way between San Shan Road and Chi Kiang Street will be temporarily closed. Motorists can still use the slow lane heading for Kowloon Central. |
Due to the lane closure, the TD anticipates that the traffic along the Kai Tak Tunnel and the East Kowloon Way will be relatively busy during the above period. Motorists passing through the road section concerned should exercise tolerance and patience and drive with utmost care. Appropriate traffic signs will be erected on-site to guide motorists.
The TD and the Police will closely monitor the traffic situation and implement appropriate measures whenever necessary. Members of the public are advised to stay alert to the latest traffic news on radio and television.
Details of the temporary traffic arrangements are now available on the TD's website (www.td.gov.hk).
