On September 23, 2024, a landslide significantly impacted traffic on Stanley Gap Road. The incident occurred late on Sunday night, following heavy rainfall in the area. The landslide, which measured approximately 10 meters by 10 meters, was reported around 11 PM.
Initially, both lanes of the affected section were closed, but one lane was reopened for two-way traffic by around 7 AM the next morning. The Highways Department promptly dispatched staff to address the situation. However, during the clearing efforts, another mudslide occurred, necessitating a temporary evacuation of the crew.
Later, officers from the Geotechnical Engineering Office arrived for inspection, and a contractor worked overnight to initiate repair efforts. The department plans to continue monitoring the situation and will carry out slope reinforcement work to ensure the road can fully reopen as soon as possible.
山泥傾瀉影響赤柱山路交通
2024年9月23日,山泥傾瀉對赤柱山路的交通造成了重大影響。事件發生在週日晚上,當時該區經歷了大雨。這次山泥傾瀉的面積約為10米乘10米,於晚上11時左右被報告。
最初,受影響路段的雙線都被封閉,但到第二天早上約7時,已經重新開放一條車道供雙向通行。公路署隨即派遣工作人員處理情況,但在清理過程中再次發生泥石流,迫使工作人員暫時撤離。
隨後,岩土工程辦事處的官員抵達現場進行檢查,並有承包商在夜間展開初步修復工作。該部門計劃持續監察情況,並將進行邊坡加固工程,以確保該路段能儘快全面開放。
