EPD referred a complaint on 21 January 2014. The
complainant drove via Tai Po Tai Wo Road section of
Tolo Highway on 21 January 2014 morning. He
observed a lot of muddy water generated from the Tolo
Highway widening construction works. Besides, he saw from Google Earth Image
Satellite that a pipe was used to draw water for ground washing, causing the
outflow of muddy runoff. As the mud on the road becomes dry, dust is
generated when vehicles are passing by.
The
complainant requests follow-up as soon as possible.
