Extra measures taken during construction of the Tseung Kwan O rail line extension will reduce noise and vibration for nearby - and future - residents, the MTR Corporation has said.
The measures included the laying of a ballast mat beneath the track that isolated the noise, MTR Corp construction manager Mark Cuzner said.
This measure would diminish the noise heard in residents' flats, he said. Rubber baseplates clipped to the track would also reduce vibration.
He did not say by how much the vibration and noise would be reduced by, but said these measures had been proven to be effective elsewhere in the MTR system.
Mr Cuzner said 60 per cent of the project, involving 3.5km of track works, had been completed.
The station was also made more accessible to the visually impaired, he said.
