Despite best efforts, the Cyberport Post Office will close down on 17 October 2021 (see previous report link). Many residents have raised concerns over this. We understand that the vacated shop space may be taken up by the 7-11 convenience chain store.

A self-service “Auto Post” has been opened in the office lobby next to McDonald’s where you can buy stamps, collect and send mail. It will operate from 7am to 11pm everyday, starting 15 Oct 2021. Click here for the notice by Hongkong Post. In the meantime, a temporary post box has been placed outside near McDonald's. Collection is daily at 11:45am (except Sunday/Public Holidays). 

儘管多達700名人士聯署要求保留數碼港郵局,郵局將於2021年10月17日關閉,詳情請按
連結瀏覽早前的報導。據聞7-11便利店將會進駐郵局的舖位。

香港郵政已於數碼港3座A區辦公大樓地下(即麥當勞旁邊)的室內地方設立了自助郵政服務設施,以便大家購買郵票、寄件及收件等。這些設施會於2021年10月15日起投入服務,服務時間為每日早上7時正至晚上11時正,詳情請參考香港郵政的通告。另外,郵局亦於麥當勞對出的行人路增設了一個街道郵筒,截郵時間為星期一至星期六早上11時45分,公眾假期除外。

HKU to provide more information on new laboratory complex 港大就擬建實驗室大樓提供額外資料

13/10/2021

HK01 has reported extensively on the HKU laboratory project in Pokfulam:

Proposal by HKU: link
Comments from residents: link
Comments from district councillor and resident engineer: link
 
The HKU has asked the Town Planning Board to defer its application in order to provide more information in response to concerns raised by residents and government departments. HKU has offered to reduce the maximum building height by 5 meters. This is considered meaningless, as the scheme available for approval is merely notional.

The Legislative Council Finance Committee in their meeting on 8 October 2021 approved a HK$56 million budget for site surveys and engineering studies. Only once these have been completed can a realistic scheme be devised for this complicated site. We will continue to urge the Town Planning Board to demand a detailed analyses of costs and benefits of alternative sites. HKU has various sites near the Queen Mary Hospital which it can and should consider.

香港01今日就港大於薄扶林擬建實驗室大樓作出多篇詳細報導:

香港大學向城市規劃委員會申請延後處理該項規劃申請,以便他們提供額外資料回應政府部門及居民的意見。香港大學表示會將大樓的最高高度降低五米。我們認為此舉意義不大,因為現時只是審批初步概念設計。

立法會財務委員會於2021年10月8日的會議上通過五千六百萬的撥款,讓港大就項目進行前期工作。由於斜坡陡峭,最終大樓的設計及高度均取決於這些前期工作的結論。我們會繼續促請城規會要求港大提交其他選址的可行性報告。香港大學擁有多幅鄰近瑪麗醫院的土地,他們應先充分研究其他選址。
