Ren'ai Road forms a one-way couplet with Xinyi Road between Taipei City Hall and Zhongshan Road, with Ren'ai for westbound traffic and Xinyi for eastbound traffic. Along with Xinyi Road, Ren'ai Road has a contraflow bus only lane in the middle of the roadway.

Ren'ai Road (along with Dunhua Road and Zhongshan Road) is known as one of Taipei's more "beautiful" roads, with heavily landscaped medians dividing the road into local and express lanes.
