A potable-water pipe leak was reported on the morning of 25 August 2026 near Tuen Li Street on Castle Peak Road in Tuen Mun, the latest in a series of reported incidents along the same stretch. The Water Supplies Department said it had received a report and sent staff to follow up.
An online video showed muddy yellow water continuously flowing onto the road near Tuen Li Street. The footage did not establish whether the incident disrupted water supplies or required a suspension of service.
Ming Pao reported that the section had earlier experienced three water-main bursts or leaks within one week, with incidents near Fu Faat Lane and Tuen Hing Road. The report did not establish whether those incidents included the latest leak.
Star Headline reported that a 600-millimetre-diameter steel water main near Tuen Li Street leaked in late July and that the incident affected water supplies to nearby housing estates. The source described the earlier incident as a leak; the extent of damage and the cause were not confirmed in the supplied reports.
After the earlier incidents, the Water Supplies Department said it would include pipes in the area in risk-based water-main improvement works, according to Ming Pao.
It remains unclear whether the latest leak led to any interruption to water supplies, which users or estates may have been affected, whether repairs have been completed, and what caused the incident. The reports also do not state when the planned improvement works will begin or finish.
