Hong Kong boundary crossing facility

A new Hong Kong Boundary Crossing Facilities (HKBCF) project has been built that will reduce travel times for drivers. The HKBCF is intended as a clearance facility for vehicles that either leave or enter Hong Kong across the new Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB). In addition, the HKBCF is intended to operate as a strategic multi-modal transportation hub located on the west of Hong Kong.
