During the aforementioned periods, the landing steps of Wan Chai Bypass Landing No.5 (HP162) and No.6 (HP163) will be temporarily closed.

Owners and coxswains of vessels are advised to use other landing facilities in the vicinity during the periods of closure. Other than Government launches and permitted vessels engaged in the performance, no vessels will be allowed to enter or remain within the Restricted Area.
