The proposed widening of Tolo Highway and Fanling Highway
between Island House Interchange and Fanling (the
Project) is a Designated Project under the Environmental Impact Assessment
Ordinance (Cap. 499) (EIAO). An Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report
(the approved EIA Report) together with an Environmental Monitoring and Audit
(EM&A) Manual (the approved EM&A Manual) were completed and approved
under the EIAO on 14 July 2000 (Register Number: EIA-043/2000).
The objective of the Project ¡°Widening of Tolo
Highway / Fanling Highway between Island House
Interchange and Fanling¡± is to widen Tolo Highway and Fanling Highway
to dual 4-lane carriageway in order to alleviate the current traffic congestion
problems and to cope with the increasing transport demands to and from the urban
areas and also cross boundary traffic.
The construction works for this Project will be delivered in 2 stages
i.e. Stage 1 (between Island House Interchange and Tai Hang) and Stage 2
(between Tai Hang and Wo Hop Shek Interchange). Stage 2 would be implemented under three
works contracts. Contract No. HY2012/06 ¡°Widening of Fanling
Highway ¨C Tai Hang to Wo Hop Shek Interchange¡± and the entrusted portion to
CEDD under Contract No. CV/2012/09 ¡±Liantang/Heung
Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point Site Formation and Infrastructure Works ¨C
Contract 3¡±. In addition,
Contract No. ¡°Provision of Bus-Bus Interchange on Fanling
Highway Kowloon Bound¡± was carried out within the site boundary of Contract No.
02/HY/2015. This report focuses on Contract
No.
HY/2012/06 ¡°Widening of Fanling
Highway ¨C Tai Hang to Wo Hop Shek Interchange¡± in Stage 2 of the Project and ¡°Provision of Bus-Bus Interchange on Fanling Highway Kowloon Bound¡± under Works Order Nos.
CB128520-5 and CB128519-0 in Contract No. 02/HY/2015 ¡°Highway Department Term
Contract (Management and Maintenance of Roads in Tai Po and North District
excluding High Speed Roads 2016-2022)¡±. The construction works of Works Order Nos. CB128520-5 and CB128519-0
under Contract No. 02/HY/2015 have been completed on 23 May 2018.
Pursuant
to the EP (EP-324/2008/E) Condition 2.7, the Capture Survey Trip Report for Ma
Wat River Northern Meander (Version 2) for the Project was submitted on 24
December 2013 by the Environmental Team (ET) and verified by the Independent
Environmental Checker (IEC) on 6 January 2014.
The
construction phase of the Contract under the EP and the Environmental
Monitoring and Audit (EM&A) programme of the contract commenced on 21 November 2013. The impact
environmental monitoring and audit includes air quality and noise monitoring.
This report documents the
findings of EM&A works conducted in the period between 1 February and 30
April 2020. As informed by the Contractor, construction activities of Contract
No. HY/12012/06 in the reporting period were as follows:
-
Noise Barrier maintenance
- Excavation
- Backfilling
- Road resurfacing
- Landscape works
Reporting Change
There was no
reporting change required in the reporting period.
Breaches of Action and Limit Levels
for Air Quality
No exceedance of Action and Limit Level was recorded for 1-hour
and 24-hour TSP monitoring in the reporting period.
Breaches
of Action and Limit Levels for Noise
Complaint, Notification of Summons
and Successful Prosecution
No complaint, notification of summons and
successful prosecution was received in the reporting period.
Future Key Issues
Key issues to be considered in the coming month include:
-
Properly store and label oils and chemicals on site;
-
Chemical, chemical waste and waste management;
-
Collection of construction waste should be carried out
regularly;
-
Properly maintain all drainage facilities and wheel washing
facilities on site;
-
Exposed slopes should be covered up properly if no temporary
work will be conducted;
-
Quieter powered mechanical equipment should be used;
-
Suppress dust generated from excavation activities and haul
road traffic; and
-
Tree protective measures for all retained trees should be
well maintained.
