The director of the Hengqin New Area’s Administrative Committee, Niu Jing, has said that the authority has completed a draft plan that would allow vehicles from Macau to access the island. “Plans and details regarding its management method and how it should be implemented are now basically stipulated and the construction of the supporting facilities is almost ready,” Niu told reporters at the sidelines of a press conference. However he cautioned that authorities are yet to set an official launching date. “The official launching date has to be jointly and officially announced by the Guangdong provincial government and the SAR government so I don’t have a timetable for now,” he added, cited by TDM.
