The following is issued on behalf of the Hospital Authority:

     The spokesperson for Caritas Medical Centre (CMC) made the following update regarding  an earlier announcement today (May 17) on a temporary road closure.

     Due to other nearby trees that need to be managed immediately during the work of removal of collapsed and broken tree branches, the work period needs to be extended. Thus, the vehicular access at the junction of Po On Road and Misereor Road will remain closed until later tonight. A further announcement update will be made upon completion of the related works. We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.

     Hospital services will remain normal during this period.
