Members of HA and its committees visit Kai Cheung Court at Diamond Hill (with photos)
*************************************************************************************
The following is issued on behalf of the Hong Kong Housing Authority:
 
     Members of the Hong Kong Housing Authority (HA) and members of its Building Committee and Tender Committee paid a visit to the Kai Cheung Court Home Ownership Scheme (HOS) project at Diamond Hill today (December 23) to learn more about its progress.
 
     Kai Cheung Court is one of four HOS developments for sale in 2020. All the flats of Kai Cheung Court were sold out.
 
     With a total site area of about 6 320 square metres, Kai Cheung Court comprises two domestic blocks. The 39-storey Kai Yi House and 35-storey Kai Yuet House provide a total of 940 flats for about 2 900 residents. The saleable area ranges from 27.4 sq m to 46.6 sq m.
 
     Members noted the smooth progress of the project and that construction of the superstructure is in progress. The estimated material date is May 2023.
 
     Members were also briefed by the project team of the Housing Department on the design challenges such as development constraints posed by the drainage reserved area such that a building setback is required and an air path is allowed between the buildings to enhance natural air ventilation.
 
     As the site is located in the vicinity of Choi Hung Road and Lung Cheung Road with heavy traffic, acoustic fins are built at some locations of the blocks, and acoustic windows are installed in some flats to reduce the impact of road traffic noise on the development. 
 
     Members were also informed that innovative technology such as Building Information Modelling and construction robots were being extensively adopted to enhance the efficiency at the planning and construction stages.
 
     Although Kai Cheung Court is not a large-scale development, it provides a children's play area as well as landscape and greenery for the residents' leisure. There is also a basement carpark for residents and visitors.
 
     Kai Cheung Court is located in the Diamond Hill Comprehensive Development Area (CDA). This large-scale comprehensive development in an urban area, which is rare in recent years, comprises Kai Chuen Court Phase 1 Public Rental Housing and Kai Chuen Court Phase 2 Green Form Subsidised Home Ownership Scheme project. Apart from public housing developments, the CDA also provides a water feature park, landscaped walk, public transport interchange and religious facilities, etc.
