Central Kowloon Bypass Yau Ma Tei section suspected rebar not screwed into couplers; Highways Department says alternative design used

The Highways Department responded to questions about rebar in the Central Kowloon Bypass Yau Ma Tei section, saying the contractor proposed an alternative design during construction in November 2024 due to the narrow site environment, including omitting stirrups, which met structural safety requirements. Before the scheme was implemented, it was checked and approved by the independent checking engineer and approved by the resident site engineer. The relevant tunnel road surface works were completed in early 2025, and the Yau Ma Tei section opened at the end of the same year, with normal structural conditions to date.
