Police said a fatal traffic accident on the North Lantau Highway on Wednesday morning claimed one man's life and left two other people injured.
Officers received a report at around 9.49am that a taxi bound for the airport collided with a construction vehicle.
A male passenger in his 40s, who is believed to have been ejected from the taxi, was found unconscious and later pronounced dead at North Lantau Hospital.
The drivers of both vehicles, police said, were injured but conscious when taken to hospital for treatment.
The Transport Department said some lanes of North Lantau Highway near Citygate were closed, and motorists were advised to use alternative routes such as Shun Long Road.
