Hey travel buffs and tech enthusiasts! The iconic Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge is in the spotlight with a whopping 70% rise in foreign passenger trips via its Zhuhai land port, hitting over 172,000 rides. 🚀
This surge comes as China's expansion of visa-free policies turns the Zhuhai land port into a must-visit gateway—the only one on the Chinese mainland offering direct road access to Hong Kong International Airport. And guess what? Overall trips across the bridge have jumped 18.9% to more than 10 million, reaching this milestone 25 days earlier than expected in 2024.
Moreover, trips by mainland residents have grown 30.3% to 4.18 million, while journeys by Hong Kong and Macao-registered vehicles have surged 32.4% to nearly 1.2 million, with daily averages topping 10,000 rides. 🌉
This impressive boost reflects how improved connectivity and eased travel policies are not only transforming regional mobility but also resonating with our fast-paced, global lifestyle. Stay tuned for more exciting updates on trends that shape our world!
