Construction of the Sha Tin T4 truck road in Hong Kong now looks likely to cost more than originally planned. The work will cost an estimated US$910.85 million.

The key portion of the project is for the construction of dual two-lane elevated carriageways measuring 1.4km. These will connect with the Shing Mun Tunnel Road and Tsing Sha Highway to the proposed at-grade carriageways fronting The Riverpark. Included will be the construction of dual two-lane at-grade carriageways and underpasses of 600m long between The Riverpark and Tsang Tai Uk. Also included will be the construction of a 300m slip road near Tsang Tai Uk connecting Lion Rock Tunnel Road southbound and Sha Tin Road eastbound. An elevated pedestrian bicycle path will also be built across the Shing Mun River Channel and Lion Rock Tunnel Road.
