Po Lam Road
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Po Lam Road (寶琳路) is a road in Hong Kong that links Sau Mau Ping in New Kowloon and the new town of Tseung Kwan O in the New Territories.

In 1950s, when the Hong Kong Government sent the refugees of Kuomintang to the area of Rennie's Mill, some churches in Rennie's Mill built along part of the Po Lam Road (then called Anderson Road, which was extended from the southern end of the present-day Anderson Road to the present-day Po Lam Road South). Until late 1980s, this road was only used by residents in Rennie's Mill.
In late 1980s, when the first two public housing estates in Po Lam, Tseung Kwan O New Town - Po Lam Estate and Tsui Lam Estate were built, it became the only link for Po Lam until the Tseung Kwan O Tunnel was opened in 1990.
