Project Description
The Ma On Shan
Extension project involves the construction and operation
of approximately 11.4 km of railway track from Tai Wai to
Lee On. This included nine stations (at Tai Wai, Sha Tin Tau,
Sha Kok Street, City One, Shek Mun, Chevalier Garden, Heng
On, Ma On Shan and Lee On), a depot at Tai Wai and two infeed
substations.
Mitigation
Measures
- Various
types of nose barriers were required along the entire railway
alignment, including the use of a multi-plenum system along the
viaduct sections, to protect about 100,000 people.
- Landscaping
along all viaduct sections and elevated stations was included
to alleviate visual and landscape impacts on the surrounding areas.
