Sai Sha Road (Chinese: 西沙路) is a main road connecting Sai Kung and Ma On Shan. It passes through Three Fathoms Cove and Shap Sze Heung before traversing the new town of Ma On Shan and Wu Kai Sha.
Several estates and the MTR stations Ma On Shan Station and Heng On Station lie next to Sai Sha Road. The length of the road is approximately 11.2 km. Despite the road having close to no slope, it includes many bends.
History
Construction of the road began in the late 1970s. It originally stretched from Tai Mong Tsai to Nai Chung, hence the original name of the road was Nai Chung Access Road. In 1986, its name was altered to Sai Sha Road and has retained this name since then. Two years later, it was open to traffic, with the connection between Sha Tin New Town and Ma On Shan finally complete.
