For port saiwan three stand as "water park", Hong Kong notary administrative technical director lai damien said after site visit, sai ying pun station leakage problem is the most "outrageous", found that B export of ground screw lift lobby, there is a leakage of the wall body mass of about six meters, escape door also found serious water out of the ground, is likely to make the old man and child accidentally slip.
Mr Lai criticised MTR for failing to manage risk and making low-level mistakes. He warned that the consequences would be poor once the groundwater infiltrates the parts of the screw.
Lai damien holding a flashlight and a sensor of heat meter, one by one, points out the problem of "water seepage black spots" to the reporter, he criticized MTR did not do a good job in risk management measures, decorate in the station, and open to traffic before and after, have failed to find water seepage, deficient.
He explained, "characteristic" of the west island line 3 stops, dozens of meters, the depth of underground station is poured out of the water pressure more easily larger groundwater, or will cause the most serious flooding, and refers to "the wall body water seepage problem is severe, and close to the screw lift, once broken parts will produce risk, to real-time processing!"
Water seepage is mainly due to the west island line three station in the deep underground, or have a slit between rocks, high pressure groundwater was easy to pour out, he believed that the MTR has seepage water project construction, but the project is not yet perfect. It is recommended to find out the source of water seepage as soon as possible in order to fill up the water, "but the station is already in operation and it is not easy to carry out the project". There are many old people in the west ring, and the long standing water seepage of the station is inconvenient for them. The MTR should always wipe the ground and erect a warning sign.
