The Tseung Kwan O-Lam Tin Tunnel (Chinese: 將軍澳－藍田隧道) is a tunnel in Hong Kong that is part of Route 6.[1] Originally expected to open in 2021, its opening was delayed to 11 December 2022 due to the worldwide outbreak of COVID-19.[2][3][4][5]

The tunnel connects Lam Tin to the Tseung Kwan O New Town. The eastern edge of the tunnel project connects directly with the Cross Bay Link to LOHAS Park.
