The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge recorded some 100,000 passengers entering and exiting during the weekend, hitting a record high in three years.
According to state media CCTV, routes from Zhuhai to Hong Kong via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, and then from Hong Kong to Macau via the bridge are booming, receiving an average of 2,000-3,000 mainland tourists every day.
In addition, driven by the policy of “Macau Cars Going Northward” tourists have increased significantly, and the increase in Macau single-plate vehicles entering Guangdong is particularly obvious.
The border checkpoint of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge inspected more than 3,000 Macau single-plate vehicles on Sunday, the highest number since the implementation of the policy.
As of Sunday, the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge border inspection station has inspected and let through more than 1.78 million people, a year-on-year increase of 2.3 times. The number of vehicles entering and exiting exceeded 466,000, a year-on-year increase of nearly 49%.
The deputy leader of the second duty team of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge border inspection station, Tan Chang, said that they will continue to strengthen communication with the relevant departments in Hong Kong and Macau, plan the entry and exit lane routes based on available data, and open a sufficient number of inspection channels in a timely manner.
