Litterbugs unwelcome at fireworks

February 07, 2016

The Leisure & Cultural Services Department today urged people to keep venues clean and be mindful of their safety while watching the Lunar New Year Fireworks Display on February 9.

 

Law enforcement teams will boost patrols at venues on both sides of Victoria Harbour where large crowds are expected, to tackle littering, illegal hawking and vandalism.

 

People are advised to take their belongings with them when they leave and not leave rubbish behind. Littering will incur a fixed penalty of $1,500.

 

Additional cleaning staff and security guards will be on duty at the venues.

 

As the areas will be crowded during the fireworks display, people are advised to be tolerant and patient.

 

They should also pay attention to crowd management measures and obey police instructions.
