The government will repair the Gate of Understanding in Sai Van (West Bay), according to a statement by the Lands, Public Works and Transport Bureau (DSSOPT) yesterday.
The statement said that the repairs are for the monument to open to the public again. The Gate of Understanding has been closed to the public for a number of years due to safety issues, the statement said.
The bureau unsealed bids by 20 construction companies for the project yesterday. Among the 20 bids, 15 were accepted, while the bureau accepted the other five bids conditionally. The statement did not say what the five bidders will need to do for their quotations to be finally accepted.
