No works was
conducted under Contract HY/2010/08near Victoria Park Swimming Pool (Hing Fat
Street) during the restricted hours (from 1900hrs to 0700hrs on the following
day) from 21 December 2016 to 20 February 2017.
Nevertheless, in
view of the public concern, the Contractor of HY/2010/08 was reminded to
maintain the site control system for construction works carried out during
restricted hours to ensure the PMEs deployed are in compliance with relevant
Construction Noise Permit. The Contractor of HY/2010/08 was also reminded to
maintain regular maintenance of the plant and equipment deployed to avoid
potential nuisance to the nearby public
ET confirmed with
the Resident Site Staff that concreting of tunnel structure at Temporary
Reclamation Area TS3 were conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 between 1900hrs
and 2300hrs on 13, 14, 15, 16 and 18 February 2017. Total 3 nos. of concrete
pump and 6 nos. of concrete lorry mixers were operated. Concreting of tunnel
structure at Temporary Reclamation Area TS3 were conducted under Contract
HY/2010/08 between 1900hrs and 2100hrs on 21 February 2017. Total 3 nos. of
concrete pump and 6 nos. of concrete lorry mixers were operated. Concreting of
tunnel structure at Zone C was conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 between
1900hrs to 2300hrs on 17 and 20 February 2017. Total 1 no. of concrete pump and
2 nos. of concrete mixers were operated. Bar bending at Zone C was conducted
under Contract HY/2010/08 between 1900hrs to 2300hrs on 13, 14, 15, 16, 18 and
19 February 2017. Total 1 no. bar bender and cutter was operated. No works was
conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 near Victoria Park Swimming Pool (Hing Fat
Street) during the restricted hours (from 1900hrs to 0700hrs on the following
day) across the period from 13 February 2017 to 21 February 2017.
Based on the site
records confirmed by RSS, no works was conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 near
Victoria Park Swimming Pool (Hing Fat Street) during the restricted hours (from
1900hrs to 0700hrs on the following day) from 13 February 2017 to 20 February
2017. Concreting of tunnel structure at Temporary Reclamation Area TS3 was
conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 between 1900hrs and 2300hrs on 13, 14, 15,
16 and 18 February 2017 and total 3 nos. of concrete pumps and 6 nos. of
concrete lorry mixers were operated. Concreting of tunnel structure at
Temporary Reclamation Area TS3 were conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 between
1900hrs and 2100hrs on 21 February 2017 and total 3 nos. of concrete pump and 6
nos. of concrete lorry mixers were operated. Relevant Construction Noise Permit
GW-RS0029-17 was in place while it is considered that there is no sufficient
information to indicate whether the Powered Mechanical Equipment were deployed
at the designed location stipulated under the relevant Construction Noise
Permit with noise mitigation measures required.
Concreting of
tunnel structure at Zone C was conducted under Contract HY/2010/08 between
1900hrs to 2300hrs on 17 and 20 February 2017. Total 1 no. of concrete pump and
2 nos. concrete mixers were operated. Bar bending at Zone C was conducted under
Contract HY/2010/08 between 1900hrs to 2300hrs on 13, 14, 15, 16, 18 and 19
February 2017 and total 1 no. bar bender and cutter was operated. Relevant
Construction Noise Permit GW-RS1366-13 was in place while it is considered that
there is no sufficient information to indicate whether the Powered Mechanical
Equipment were deployed at the designed location stipulated under the relevant
Construction Noise Permit with noise mitigation measures required.
Nevertheless,
further to the joint ad-hoc inspection conducted by the ET/IEC on 13 February
2017 during restricted hours (between 1900hrs to 2200hrs), concurrent
operations of 4 nos. of concrete lorry trucks at the Southern Side of TS3 near
Construction Site Entrance and concurrent operations of 2 nos. of concrete
lorry pumps and 2 nos. of concrete lorry truck at Western and Northern Side of
TS3 were observed while the temporary noise barrier provided for the concrete
lorry pump and concrete lorry truck at the Northern Side of TS3 could not
screen entirely the concrete lorry truck and concrete lorry pump (Located at
Northern Side of TS3) from nearby sensitive receivers. Therefore, it is
considered that the above operations observed could not follow the PME grouping
requirement and the specific condition 3.d.4 under the relevant Construction
Noise Permit.
In view of the
above, the Contractor of HY/2010/08 was advised to enhance the site supervision
and strictly implement the site control system for construction works carried
out during restricted hours to ensure the PMEs deployed strictly comply with
relevant Construction Noise Permit. The Contractor of HY/2010/08 was also
reminded to maintain regular maintenance of the plant and equipment deployed to
avoid potential nuisance to the nearby public.

Section 10 Conclusion
2.1.1.
“Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan
Chai Bypass” and “Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link”
(hereafter called “the Project”) are Designated Project (DP) under the Environmental Impact
Assessment Ordinance (Cap. 499) (EIAO).
The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Reports for Central-Wan Chai
Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (Register No. AEIAR-041/2001) and Wan
Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai Bypass (Register No.:
AEIAR-125/2008) have been approved on 31 August 2001 and 11 December 2008
respectively.
2.1.2.
The key purpose of Wan Chai Development Phase II
(WDII) is to provide land at Wan Chai North and North Point for construction of
the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (CWB). Land formed
under the project will be developed as a world-class waterfront promenade
joining that at the new Central waterfront for public enjoyment.
2.1.3.
There is a compelling and present need for the
CWB to provide relief to the very congested east-west Connaught Road
Central/Harcourt Road / Gloucester Road Corridor (the Corridor) which is
currently operating beyond its capacity. The CWB will provide relief to the
existing congestion along the Corridor and cater for the anticipated growth of
traffic on Hong Kong Island. Without the CWB and its access roads, there will
not be sufficient capacity to serve the heavy traffic demands at both strategic
and local levels.
2.2.1.
Design and
Construction of Central – Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link
under the Project involves the construction and operation of a trunk road and
its road tunnel more than 800m in length between portals that is shown at Figure 2.1.
2.2.2.
The study area encompasses existing developments
from Central to North Point. The scope of the Central-Wanchai Bypass (CWB) and Island Eastern
Corridor Link (IECL) includes:
·
A dual three-lane trunk road, approximately
4.5 km in length, and tunnel approximately 3.7 km in length defined from the
connection with the existing Rumsey Street Flyover in Central, through to a
connection with the existing Island Eastern Corridor to the east of the
Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter (CBTS);
·
The Central Interchange near the Rumsey
Street Flyover to provide road connections to the Central area;
·
Tunnel control buildings and ventilation
buildings;
·
Slip roads to connect the CWB to the local
road system in the Wan Chai North and Causeway Bay area;
·
Associated road lighting, road signing,
traffic control and surveillance system; and
·
Other associated works.
2.2.3.
The project also contains various Schedule 2 DPs
that, under the EIAO, require Environmental Permits (EPs) to be granted by the DEP before they may be either constructed or operated. Table
2.1 summarises the five individual DPs under this Project. Figure 2.1 shows the locations of these Schedule 2 DPs.

Due to the multi-contract nature of the Project,
there are a number of contracts sub-dividing the whole works area into
different work areas to be commenced.
Contractors of individual contracts will be required by the EP holder to
