爭取無障礙通道 Barrier Free Access in Wong Chuk Hang

今天5月16日我和東華三院賽馬會復康中心,聯同運輸署一起實地視察。我提出在惠福道中段以及惠福道與南朗山道交界加斜路的建議,方便復康中心坐輪椅的院友以及區內長者等。當時運輸署初步同意。


現在過了兩個多月,運輸署終於透過民政處諮詢地區意見,政府的辦事效率可見一斑;我已去信要求儘快落實此建議,以便利居民,以建造無障礙社區。


The Transport Dept and JCRC and I had a joint site visit at Welfare Road in May, I proposed to have a vamp to make the road easily accessible for the disabled and elderly. The TD agreed then.


After over 2 months, the TD finally launches the consultation procedure through the Home Affairs Dept. You know the efficiency of the bureaucrats. I've urged the dept to implement this suggestion asap in written, in order to help the disabled and elderly.





現有的斜坡對使用輪椅人士而言,根本"得物無所用",因為並不平滑。


The exiting slope is not smooth enough for the disabled to access.



當時,署方還同意在上圖位置改為斜台,現在卻出爾反爾,根本不再提這個本已獲同意的建議。我已在信中要求署方回應及解釋。


The above photo is another site that the TD agreed to have a vamp for the disabled, but it's not mentioned in the consultation paper. I've questioned the dept about it in the letter.
