Lion Rock Tunnel is the first major road tunnel in Hong Kong. It was built to connect Kowloon Tong with Sha Tin, an area to become a new town. It was opened on 14 November 1967.

A few years later, as traffic increased, a second tunnel parallel to the west was constructed. It opened for traffic on 18 January 1978.
