How it's used
Names of major roads in Hong Kong often omit the word road when speaking casually, but for major thoroughfares like this, the full name is usually kept to avoid confusion. It is a vital artery for the tram system, so it is frequently mentioned when discussing travel through the Central and Western districts.
