River Road was the name of the road that stretches from the Tua Pek Kong Temple, past the fish market, old bus station (now a roundabout), the old Miri Port Authority Building (now Arcadia Square), ending at the old shop houses of what is now known as the Harbour View Inn building. This road was by the Miri River and Miri Port in the 1960s.
The road is now known today as Bendahara Road, and now covers a longer distance as Miri grew, which stretches from Centerpoint all the way to the intersection at Merbau Road, after which it is known as Permaisuri Road.
