Route 2 (Hong Kong)

Route 2 (Chinese: 二號幹綫) of Hong Kong runs from Quarry Bay of Hong Kong Island to Ma Liu Shui of the New Territories, formerly known as route 6, and renamed as route 2 in 2004 under the route numbering scheme proposed in the same year.

Route 2 consists of 4 parts, from South to North:

• Eastern Harbour Crossing starting from Quarry Bay, where it joins into Island Eastern Corridor of Route 4, across the Victoria Harbour and ending at Lam Tin. Exit 1 is present in the starting point; exit 2 is present around Lei Yue Mun Interchange.
• Kwun Tong Bypass succeeds the EHC at Lei Yue Mun Interchange and goes along the coast of Kowloon Bay to Diamond Hill. On the Kwun Tong Bypass, Route 2 junctions Route 5 and Route 7. Exit 3 is at Kowloon Bay which leads to Route 5 and the Kowloon Bay Industrial Area; exit 4 joins the Prince Edward Road at the entrance of Tate's Cairn Tunnel.
• Tate's Cairn Tunnel continues the route from Diamond Hill, cutting through Tate's Cairn to Shek Mun Interchange. Exit 5 in the section runs down to Siu Lek Yuen.

• Tate's Cairn Highway, at last, takes the route 2 to an end at Ma Liu Shui, where it joins into Tolo Highway of Route 9.
