Canal Road East and Canal Road West are streets along the junction of Causeway Bay and Wan Chai on Hong Kong Island . Along the previous banks of the Wong Nai Chung ( Bowling Canal ) Canal , it is built on both sides of the river. Therefore, Canal Road East and Canal Road West are actually two side by side. The north-south path, not a road, is divided into eastern and western sections.
"Canna" is Cantonese transliteration of the English Canal , meaning the canal . The predecessor of Canal Road was the mouth of Wong Nai Chung , which flowed from Happy Valley to Victoria Harbour , and was later expanded to the Bowring Canal in the late 1860s Canal Road East and Canal Road West are on both sides of the canal. As the canal was long and narrow and bent into a gooseneck shape, it was known by the people at the time as the " goose neck ridge. " The bridge that crosses this section of the river is called the "goose neck bridge", and the area near the area is even better. Named " goose neck area ." Later, from 1922 to 1929, the Hong Kong government conducted a reclamation project in Wan Chai . The old goose neck bridge was demolished and its construction became roughly the same as the existing tramway. A section of the Bowrington Canal north of Hennessy Road soon became an underdrain. By the end of the 1960s, in response to the opening of the Hong Kong Cross Harbour Tunnel , the Hong Kong government evenly filled out an area south of Hennessy Road, a section of Bowington Open Channel to the west of the tram company. , And later built the Canal Road Flyover , commonly known as the "goose neck bridge" has also become a traffic flyover. Later, in order to tie in with the opening of the Aberdeen Tunnel, the government built the Wong Nai Chung Gap flyover to connect the Canal Road Flyover and the Aberdeen Tunnel to the Happy Valley exit.
