Pat Heung Sitting-out Area

八鄉路為三號幹線（郊野公園）工程的一條支路，由於時稱九廣西鐵（即今屯馬綫）需要在八鄉修建車廠和維修中心，而在地面修建高架橋以跨越車廠，並在2001年通車。2005年，當時的西鐵公司為降低鐵路的土地工程對八鄉地區的風水影響，在八鄉路高架橋東側橋腳捐贈和修建了「八鄉牌樓」，為鄉民迎福鎮煞，同時成為村民祭拜和吉課的場所。2018年，康文署在牌坊前的空地增設本休憩處，注入一隅活力。休憩處佔地約650平方米，由八鄉路迴旋處和高架橋所包圍，佈局開放和簡練，T字型的花圃包圍場地的西北側，並延伸至高架橋腳，沿著花圃佈置兩個涼亭，豐富了牌坊廣場的休憩功能。

Pat Heung Road is a branch road of the Route 3 (Country Park Section) project. After the Pat Heung Depot was built by the KCR West Rail (now Tuen Ma Line), Pat Heung Road viaduct was built to connect Route 3 to the west and village road to the east of the depot and was opened to traffic in 2001. In 2005, in order to mitigate the negative impact of the railway ground work on the feng shui of the Pat Heung area, KCR donated and built the Pat Heung Arch, a Chinese style paifang at the foot of the east side of the Pat Heung Road viaduct. Area around the paifang has since become a place for villagers to worship and give blessings. In 2018, the vacant land in front of the paifang was transformed by LCSD into a sitting-out area. It occupies a 650-square-metre site sandwiched by the Pat Heung Road roundabout and the viaduct. A T-shaped flowerbed surrounds the northwest side of the site and extends to the foot of the viaduct. Two pavilions are arranged along the flowerbed to provide shade and seating places.
