The Transport Department (TD) today (February 7) reminded the public that to facilitate tram track renewal works in Wan Chai District, the nearside lane of Hennessy Road westbound from a point about 20 metres east of its junction with Tin Lok Lane to a point about 60m east of the same junction will be temporarily closed to all vehicular traffic from 8am on Thursday (February 9) to 6pm on Saturday (February 11).
 
     Appropriate traffic signs and road markings will be erected on site to guide motorists.
 
     The Transport Department anticipates that traffic in the vicinity of the affected areas will be more congested than on normal days. Members of the public are advised to plan their journey early and allow more traveling time to cater for unexpected delays. Motorists should exercise tolerance and patience in case of traffic congestion, observe the instruction given by the Police, and be alert to the latest traffic news through media.
 
     Details of the temporary traffic arrangement are now available on the department's website (www.td.gov.hk).
