The decked nullah qualified as a ‘street’ under the statutory definitions and established Crown practice; the decking was undertaken for multiple reasons and not entirely because of the public works scheme underpinning the resumption, so the Pointe Gourde exclusion does not apply; consequently the resumed land is a Class A site and compensation should be assessed on that basis, awarded at HK$21,000,000 plus interest and costs, with credit for sums already paid.
