Tsuen Wan Road (traditional Chinese: 荃灣路; simplified Chinese: 荃湾路; pinyin: Quánwān Lù; Cantonese Yale: chyun4 waan1 lou6) is a dual 3-lane expressway on Route 5 in Hong Kong, bypassing Tsuen Wan. It connects Tuen Mun Road on Route 9 to its west, and Kwai Chung Road to its east.

This road starts as a flyover from Kwai Chung Road, the road passes over Container Port Road & Kwai Tsing Interchange before going through a saddle near Kwai Shing Estate. The road then goes onto flyovers again at Tsuen Tsing Interchange, carrying on over Tsuen Wan Park, the former ferrypier, Tsuen Wan West (KCR) Station of West Rail Line & Tai Chung Road Roundabout before climbing to meet Tuen Mun Road.

The flyover between Tsuen Tsing Interchange and Tuen Mun Road was immediately offshore upon completion, but subsequent reclaimation for the new park & Train Station has left the flyovers high and dry as they are.
