North West Tsing Yi Interchange (Chinese: 青衣西北交匯處) is a road interchange in the northwest of the Tsing Yi Island, Hong Kong, between Shek Wan and Wok Tai Wan. The interchange joins Route 3 and Route 8.
Several roads meet at the interchange:
- Tsing Yi North Coastal Road, an elevated road leading to Tam Kon Shan Interchange;
- Ting Kau Bridge of Tsing Long Highway (Route 3), a bridge heading north over Ting Kau to Tai Lam Tunnel and Tuen Mun Road;
- Cheung Tsing Highway (Route 3), an expressway leading to the eastern and southern parts of the island, and also Cheung Tsing Tunnel;
- Tsing Ma Bridge of Lantau Link (Route 8), a bridge leading to Ma Wan and further expressway to Lantau Island.
Apart from the major roads, a side road leads to Lantau Link Visitors Centre and Viewing platform above Wok Tai Wan.
Famous quotes containing the words north, west and/or interchange:
“When the Somalians were merely another hungry third world people, we sent them guns. Now that they are falling down dead from starvation, we send them troops. Some may see in this a tidy metaphor for the entire relationship between north and south. But it would make a whole lot more sense nutritionally—as well as providing infinitely more vivid viewing—if the Somalians could be persuaded to eat the troops.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“Go on, high ship, since now, upon the shore,
The snake has left its skin upon the floor.
Key West sank downward under massive clouds
And silvers and greens spread over the sea. The moon
Is at the mast-head and the past is dead.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“The press and politicians. A delicate relationship. Too close, and danger ensues. Too far apart and democracy itself cannot function without the essential exchange of information. Creative leaks, a discreet lunch, interchange in the Lobby, the art of the unattributable telephone call, late at night.”
—Howard Brenton (b. 1942)
