One year after its grand opening, the Shenzhen-Zhongshan Link is rewriting the rules of regional connectivity in southern China! 🎉 This 24-km engineering marvel – featuring bridges, artificial islands, and underwater tunnels – has slashed travel time between Shenzhen and Zhongshan from 2 hours to just 30 minutes. Talk about a game-changer! ⏱️
Traffic Boom & Economic Spark
📈 The numbers don’t lie: Over 16 million vehicles crossed the link this year alone, with a single-day record of 181,600 trips on May 1. For young professionals and entrepreneurs, this means faster commutes and smoother supply chains across the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
More Than Just a Road
- 💼 300+ cross-city government services now streamlined
- 🏭 48,000 acres of industrial land consolidated in Zhongshan
- 🚀 168 Shenzhen-based firms relocated to Zhongshan in 2024 (3x growth!)
Local business leader Liao Lei told China Media Group: "We kept our HQ in Shenzhen but moved manufacturing to Zhongshan. The future looks bright!" 🌟
