New linkage between the Western Harbour Crossing and Hong Kong Island South

Project Summary

  • The need for this linkage was identified by Pypun Engineering Consultants Ltd. in the Western District Traffic Study completed in 1988
  • Linkage locates in a valley trough with a double-S shaped alignment and rises 65m vertically at a steady 10% gradient
  • Reinforced concrete bridge structure carries the alignment sidelong on the hillside to pass beneath Pokfulam Road
  • Post-tensioned in-situ box structure links Mount Davis Road into Pokfulam Road
  • Viaduct and carriageway are supported by major cantilever and caisson retaining walls
