The company is also planning to incorporate the design concept for manufacturing and assembly (DfMA) during the construction phase in order to enhance productivity and safety performance.

The project also aims to achieve ’HK Beam Plus Standards’, which requires a reduced environmental impact of the development and improved environmental quality and end-user satisfaction.

Construction works at the site will begin later this year and the development is scheduled for completion in 2021.

To complete the development project, Gammon is planning to hire 1,500 workers during the peak construction period.
