Move to allay fears of Amoy Street residents

The Urban Renewal Authority has changed its master layout for its Lee Tung Street redevelopment in Wan Chai to address the worries of residents living in Amoy Street. Lee Tung Street will become a pedestrian area while dead-end Amoy Street will be turned into a two-lane road. Residents there were worried about traffic disturbances, so it has said parking spaces would be cut from 238 to 198 and it would implement traffic-calming measures.
