Major Findings of Traffic Noise Impact Assessment

With the provision of a 2.5 m high vertical noise barrier for the planned school, no adverse noise impacts are predicted at the NSRs during the operational phase of the Project.  In the design year for the Project, the traffic noise levels for the case with the Project in operation will not be significantly higher, ie by 1.0 dB(A) or more, than those for the case without the Project.  Based on the above, the traffic noise impact due to the Project is considered insignificant.  Furthermore, the mitigated noise levels due to the road sections within the meaning of Item A.1 of Schedule 2 under the EIAO complied with the noise criteria as stipulated in the EIAO-TM.

Major Findings of Air Quality Impact Assessment

A quantitative assessment was conducted using the peak hourly traffic flow of the proposed new roads and the surrounding road network. The prediction indicated no exceedance of hourly and daily average concentrations of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) or daily average concentrations of Respirable Suspended Particulates (RSP) in the vicinity of the Project.

Major Findings of Visual Impact Assessment

Four Visually Sensitive Receivers (VSRs), VSR1 Sun Yuen Long Centre, VSR2 Pok Oi Hospital, VSR3 Kwong Ming Ying Loi School and VSR4 Yeung Uk Tsuen, were identified. There will be negligible residual impacts (impact at year 10) on all four VSRs.
