Social advisor calls for better facilities near Barra Transport Hub
Chang Ka Wa, a member of the Central District Advisory Committee, has proposed that better support facilities be built around the future Barra Transport Hub. Considering the hub is expected to be completed this coming March, the committee member believes more pedestrian facilities should be constructed near the hub to allow for conditions that are more convenient and safer for foot traffic. He also believes a coastal promenade in the area is necessary to boost sightseeing and a leisure lifestyle. He foresees that the São Lourenço district will connect with Barra as a great tourist attraction, featuring historic buildings and specialty food.
