There's a bridge on this road and the river it across, Huangxi, which divide Shilin District and Beitou District, therefore, this road is also an important road because it connects two districts together. Its former name in the years when the American armies were still in Taiwan, was combined with Tianmu North Road now, became L-shaped road, and they've called it Tianmu Third Road. Now Tianmu North Road has a republic, and west side of Tianmu North Road, which continues the Tianmu West Road and was called Shipai Thirty-sixth Road in 1970,[1] has combined in 1991[2] and became what we know and what we can see now .
