implemented by the Transport Department and the Police at short notice.
As the road closures and traffic diversions will be implemented at different times

affected areas. Motorists should exercise tolerance and patience in case of traffic
congestion and follow the instructions of the Police. Any vehicles found
illegally parked within the precincts of the special traffic arrangements specified
above will be towed away or ticketed by the Police without prior notice.
Members of the public who intend to go to the affected areas are advised to use
public transport services as far as possible, plan their journey early and allow
more traveling time to cater for unexpected delay. Bus passengers and other
public transport commuters are advised to pay attention to the arrangements of
route diversions and suspension/relocation of stops.
Members of the public are advised to watch out for the latest traffic news
through radio and television broadcasts. For the details of the special traffic and
transport information, members of the public may call 1823 Call Centre or
