		That authorisation is integral to the Central OZP which was itself lawfully approved by the Chief Executive in Council in terms of s.9 of the Town Planning Ordinance, Cap.131, as long ago as 17 December 2002, that approval being gazetted on 27 December 2002.
		When the Central OZP was in the course of preparation, those representing the applicant did not at that time object in principle to the construction of the Central-Wan Chai Bypass.
		Indeed, at the time when the Central OZP was in the course of preparation the applicant had a plan prepared which showed how the bypass could be contained within what it considered to be a minimum amount of reclamation.

	SKYLINE Technologies -- News Update (23 May 2005 )
		The redevelopment of the Wan Chai shoreline is back in the public eye with the latest proposal presented by the government's harborfront advisory body.
		Last January, the government lost its case of the Wan Chai North reclamation plan - which it said was vital for the Central-Wan Chai bypass to materialize - at the Court of Final Appeal.
		Leung Kong-yui, who chaired the Wan Chai review subcommittee under the advisory group, said the latest consultation was the first of several stages and, at this point, members were not concerned with whether reclamation would go ahead or how much it would cost.

		A panel of nine transport experts, nominated by the HER Task Force under the HEC Sub-committee and various universities and professional bodies, are set to deliberate transport issues at the forum.

	SKYLINE Technologies -- News Update (10 March 2006 )
		Reclamation is essential to the construction of the Central-Wan Chai bypass, a government advisory body tasked to review the development project heard Thursday.
		Shallow "cut and cover" tunnels would be required to link the bypass trunk road to a proposed tunnel on the west and the Island Eastern Corridor on the east.
		The consultants were commissioned in December to look at all possible options for the bypass, including flyover and tunnel, in accordance with the Court of Final Appeal's ruling in 2004 that any proposed reclamation has to meet an "overriding need" test.

	Clean Air Initiative: Asia - Bypass first, road toll later to ease traffic
		HONG KONG: Electronic road tolls may be an option to relieve traffic jams in Central and Wan Chai, Deputy Secretary for the Environment, Transport and Works Thomas Chow says, adding the prerequisites are public acceptance and the Central-Wan Chai Bypass.
		Mr Chow said it would be unfair for drivers here if such a scheme is implemented in Central and Wan Chai without the bypass, adding the Government will explore the feasibility of such schemes.
		As some illustrations contained in the kit had given rise to confusion, a revised kit will be issued to replace the original one as soon as possible, he added.

		The Central-Wan Chai Bypass is the final and most vital road transport link missing on the northern shore of Hong Kong Island.
		It is needed to divert through traffic away from the Central business district, to cater for anticipated traffic growth beyond 2006 and to alleviate congestion on existing road networks (already operating at capacity) that feed into Central from the east and west.
		If the Bypass is not built, congestion along the Connaught Road Central/Harbour Road/Gloucester Road Corridor will spill over into the neighbouring roads in Central and Wan Chai, eventually creating gridlock.

		The hotel would be ``too massive and incompatible with the character of neighboring developments'' in the Wan Chai district, Hong Kong's town planning board said a faxed statement late yesterday.

		Yet when Mr Tsang announced his intention to revive the plan for a new government headquarters at Admiralty during his election campaign in June, he could not have foreseen how much embarrassment his decision would inflict upon his transport officials in an expert forum early this month.
		When asked to defend whether the proposed Central-Wan Chai bypass is a sustainable transport solution, government officials had no choice but to reveal traffic models which predicted that, even with the bypass, traffic jams would be widespread again by 2016 - with the traffic generated by the proposed government headquarters a major contributing factor.
		Mr Tsang should not be expected to grasp the intricacies of traffic models.
