	Lion Rock Tunnel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Lion Rock Tunnel (Traditional Chinese: 獅子山隧道) is a twin-bored toll tunnel in Hong Kong, connecting Sha Tin in the New Territories and New Kowloon near Kowloon Tong.
		The Lion Rock Tunnel was opened on November 14, 1967, as a 1.43 km dual-one single bore tunnel.
		The conception of this tunnel is often described as a by-product, as there was a need at that time to build a water supply tunnel through the range of hills separating New Kowloon and the rest of the New Territories, as part of the Plover Cove scheme.
