The Government intends to carry out regulation work within an area of about 5,660 square metres at the foreshore and sea-bed of Shenzhen River and the confluence of Shenzhen River and Ping Yuen River. This is for the purpose of alleviating flooding and enhancing the river environment.

The extent of the area affected is described in a notice published in the Government Gazette today (July 23).
The notice together with its related plan are posted on notice boards near the site. The plan can be seen and purchased on order at the Survey and Mapping Office of the Lands Department, 23rd floor, North Point Government Offices, 333 Java Road, North Point.
