The Hong Kong government started developing new towns in the 1950s to accommodate Hong Kong's booming population. During the first phase of development,the newly developed towns were called "satellite towns",a concept borrowed from the United Kingdom,of which Hong Kong was a colony. Kwun Tong,located in eastern Kowloon,and Tsuen Wan,located in the south-west of the New Territories,were designated as the first satellite towns,when the urban area in Hong Kong was still relatively small,restricted to the central and western parts of Kowloon Peninsula and the northern side of Hong Kong Island. Wah Fu Estate was also built in a remote corner on the southern side of Hong Kong Island,with similar concepts but at a smaller scale.
The Tuen Mun–Chek Lap Kok Link is a bridge-tunnel road project in the New Territories,Hong Kong. It comprises two elements:the "Northern Connection" and the "Southern Connection". The Northern Connection comprises an undersea tunnel,the Tuen Mun-Chek Lap Kok Tunnel,crossing the Urmston Road,linking Tuen Mun to the "Boundary Crossing Facilities" (BCF),an artificial island connected to Hong Kong International Airport on Chek Lap Kok. The Southern Connection,officially named Shun Long Road,comprises viaducts linking the BCF to North Lantau Highway on Lantau Island.
