 MAJOR EVENTS OF THE YEAR
   JAN
The URA completed the retrofitting works to support rehabilitation initiatives, and has turned the nearly 60-year-old derelict Wing Hong Factory Building at Yu Chau West Street in Cheung Sha Wan into a modernised structure. The building was upgraded through retrofitting of facilities to meet the modern standard, thus improving safety and prolonging the building serviceability. It is the URA’s first factory building to be retrofitted, rehabilitated and
   revitalised for reuse.
  FEB
In response to the fifth wave of the COVID-19 outbreak, the URA collaborated with Tung Wah Group of Hospitals to distribute anti-epidemic kits to the residents living
in the URA rehousing blocks and its acquired properties, so as
to minimise their risk of contracting the virus in public spaces.
The URA also offered free accommodation at its 56 emergency vacant units to residential tenants or URA staff and their household members who are close contacts of confirmed cases to relieve the pressure on the Government’s isolation facilities.
