Shenchen to Sun Yat-sen Link

Post by Laan Yaa Mo » July 2, 2024, 2:17 pm

Congratulations to China for getting the Shenchen (Shenzhen) to Sun Yat-sen (Zhongshan) link up and running. Its construction should go a long way to improving the economy of Gwongdung Province as there will be an even closer connexion between Hong Kong, Canton (Kwangtung, Macau and the two cities.
[The 24-km cross-sea Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link opened to traffic on June 30. The link reduces the travel time between Shenzhen and Zhongshan from two hours to approximately 30 minutes.

It is a key project in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. It consists of one underwater tunnel, two bridges and two artificial islands, and was one of the most challenging cross-sea cluster projects in the world to build./quote]

Some Hongkongers, however, are worried how it will impact its leading role in the region.
