Another on-site journey tme indicator system will enter service tomorrow at the Island Eastern Corridor Westbound, outside City Garden, North Point.
The system, the first of its kind in Hong Kong, will be reviewed in the first quarter of 2004.
This is the third set of journey time indicators to be activated. The first entered service on Gloucester Road eastbound in June this year and the second, located at the Canal Road Flyover northbound, was commissioned earlier this month.
With the journey times provided, motorists can decide which of the cross-harbour routes to Kowloon from Hong Kong Island is best for them.
The journey times shown are calculated from the location of the indicator to the Kowloon exits at the tunnel toll plaza. The information will be updated at least every five minutes.
Motorists' comments welcome
The indicators will inform motorists of the travel time required to cross the harbour from Hong Kong Island to Kowloon via the Cross Harbour Tunnel and the Western Harbour Crossing.
To comment on the system, call the Government hotline 1823 or contact the Intelligent Transport Division by fax at 2845 7489 or by email at jtis@td.gov.hk.
