A Hong Kong man who went missing for more than 12 hours during a hike in Yuen Long was found by an employee of Tai Lam Tunnel on Monday morning. The force received a report from a 57-year-old woman, surnamed Lee, at 5.22pm on Sunday, saying that her 28-year-old son was missing after going off
Hong Kong’s transport authorities are putting up more signs on the Yau Ma Tei section of the Central Kowloon Bypass to make directions clearer, following complaints of inadequate signage despite the newly opened thoroughfare operating smoothly on its first day. Secretary for Transport Mable Chan said that 50,000 vehicles had so far used the bypass’
另外，繞道啟德出口處昨有多輛車疑因路牌指示不足選錯行車線，至分岔路口前才強行切線改道。路政署長邱國鼎今早表示，已在出口處增加地面標記提醒駕駛者行車線方向。記者試行路段時發現署方在出口處4條行車線均增設路面標記，並在分岔路口前的影線設雪糕筒，但記者今早近11時在啟德出口觀察，發現情况仍持續，10分鐘內已有4輛車切雙白線改道。 記者今早8時半與香港汽車高級駕駛協會前執委林鴻傑在朗豪坊出發，經櫻桃街轉入位於連翔道的繞道入口時行車暢順，大部分來自西九的車輛在連翔道時未有如記者般靠右轉入繞道，而是繼續直行。記者最終花約10分鐘到達Megabox附近，沿途行車暢順，繞道車流少。 加士居道天橋車龍縮短 不過，記者其後於9時半試行同一路線，今次則花約15分鐘才到達，與使用舊路相若。林鴻傑分析，繞道往九龍灣的出口連接啟祥道，由啟祥道到Megabox至少有3支交通燈；但若經啟德隧道，隧道一出便是啟福道，燈位較少且更近Megabox。林坦言，若日後他要由旺角往九龍灣，除非早知舊路非常擠塞，否則會續用舊路，不會行繞道，因兩路車程時間差不多，啟德隧道免費但繞道長遠全線通車後要收8元，他覺得行繞道不化算。 記者今早約8時半亦觀察加士居道天橋車龍，發現與上周一同時段比較，車龍有縮短，由上周龍尾超過油麻地果欄近碧街，今日縮短到僅果欄附近。林鴻傑認為不排除部分車分流改經繞道，而若加士居道天橋有改善，他更會傾向行舊路。 加士居道道天橋今早8時半的行車情况。（楊柏賢攝） Source link
