Before the construction of the Fanling Highway, the road connected Fanling and Sheung Shui. It is one of earliest major roads in the New Territories.

The road begins at Nathan Road near Sham Shui Po, runs through the valley between Golden Hill and Beacon Hill, and connects to Sha Tin. It then continues northward along Sha Tin Hoi and Tai Po Hoi.
