Ferry Street is a throughfare running north–south through Mong Kok, Yau Ma Tei, and Jordan.[1] It is a major road housing the West Kowloon Corridor above it, making it one of the busiest roads in Kowloon.[2] Before the start of land reclamation in the 1990s, this road marked the coast of West Kowloon, and most piers were built on this road, hence the name.
Before this road was built, this was part of the sea, and this road was reclaimed in the early stages of land reclamation of West Kowloon. The road was built in the 1930s, and the name of Ferry Street was finalized by the government in 1947.[2] It directly faced the Yau Ma Tei Typhoon Shelter to the west, until the next phase of reclamation in the 1990s removed its access to the sea.
The road has been plagued by congestion for those entering the West Kowloon Corridor and the Cross-Harbour Tunnel.[3] A bottleneck on Gascoigne Road towards the entrance of the tunnel can easily cause traffic jams towards Ferry Street. The government has tried to relieve this issue with the Central Kowloon Route, which will provide another route towards Hong Kong Island.[4]
Roads are listed North to South. Unless otherwise stated, all roads intersect Ferry Street only on the east side.T = ThroughW = West
