The Transport Department said all lanes of the Lion Rock Tunnel have reopened after several hours of emergency repairs.

Traffic was very congested on Thursday morning – with the queue extending to the Prince of Wales Hospital at one point – after officials closed off the Kowloon-bound slow lane of the tunnel for repair work.

But the department announced at around 10.40am that the works had been completed, and all lanes have been reopened to motorists.
