How it's used
Proper nouns for streets in Hong Kong often retain the colonial era naming conventions which are strictly followed in both formal and informal address. When giving directions, it is common to drop the suffix if the context is clear, but for this specific road, the full name is usually kept to distinguish it from other major thoroughfares in the Central district.
Examples
I am waiting for the bus on Connaught Road Central.
