Shek Kok Road, Urban road in Tseung Kwan O, Hong Kong.
Shek Kok Road is a thoroughfare in Tseung Kwan O that runs for about half a kilometer. It links Environmental Boulevard in the south with a roundabout to the north of the district.
This road was created in the 2000s when Tseung Kwan O underwent rapid development. The site shifted from industrial use with a steel factory to a modern residential neighborhood.
This location shows how Hong Kong shifted from making things to building homes. The surrounding streets and buildings tell the story of factories becoming neighborhoods.
The road has a speed limit of 50 kilometers per hour and serves as a busy traffic route. Pedestrians should use designated crossing points, as traffic moves steadily throughout the day.
Two pedestrian bridges are planned to connect this road with Environmental Boulevard nearby. These bridges will make it much easier for people on foot to cross between both sides and link the neighborhood better.
