The access road leading to the Tseung Kwan O Chinese Permanent Cemetery will remain closed temporarily to vehicles (except emergency vehicles, hearses, vehicles taking part in funeral processions and vehicles possessing valid entry permits) between 6 am and 8 pm daily on March 31, April 1, 5, 7, 8, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 28 and 29, 2001.
