About: Route Twisk

An Entity of Type: infrastructure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Route Twisk is a steep and tortuous dual-lane road in Hong Kong, linking Tsuen Wan and Pat Heung via Shek Kong. It joins and north in Kam Tin, and ends in the Tsuen Kam Interchange south in Tsuen Wan. It was named for the initials of the two places it links: Tsun Wan (ie Tsuen Wan) and Shek Kong. A further suggestion is that it was a misprint of the identification Route TW/SK in a construction project document.

  • Route Twisk is a steep and tortuous dual-lane road in Hong Kong, linking Tsuen Wan and Pat Heung via Shek Kong. It joins and north in Kam Tin, and ends in the Tsuen Kam Interchange south in Tsuen Wan. It was named for the initials of the two places it links: Tsun Wan (ie Tsuen Wan) and Shek Kong. A further suggestion is that it was a misprint of the identification Route TW/SK in a construction project document. It is the only link to Tai Mo Shan Road, the road leading to Tai Mo Shan, the highest peak in Hong Kong. The last section of Stage 8 of the MacLehose Trail runs along Tai Mo Shan Road. Opposite this intersection is a car park, and the starting point of Stage 9 of the trail, which continues in a westerly direction. Because the road is narrow and steep with many bends, vehicles longer than 10 metres are prohibited except for some buses that have obtained permits to run on the road. (en)
  • 荃錦公路(英語:Route Twisk)位於香港新界荃灣區荃灣和元朗區石崗之間,為一南北走向道路。公路全長11.5公里,北面與錦田公路和林錦公路相接,南面於荃錦交匯處與象鼻山路、大河道北和德士古道交匯,中途跨越荃錦坳、石崗軍營和大帽山郊野公園等人跡罕至的地方。荃錦公路以狹窄多彎聞名,車流量一直偏低,但其建成後遂成為現時往來石崗和荃灣最直接的公路。現時除了已獲得於此路行走許可證之巴士外,總長度超過10米的車輛都不可以進入荃錦公路;新界的士可行走全段荃錦公路,惟只有大帽山郊野公園範圍及以北路段可上落客,以南路段則不准上落客。 (zh)
