The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB) just smashed its daily passenger record with 130,000 travelers passing through Zhuhai Port on Monday! ๐โจ This spike came during Lunar New Year celebrations, proving the mega-project is becoming Asiaโs ultimate travel artery.
๐ Traffic alert: The numbers blew past last yearโs Mid-Autumn Festival peak of 115,000. Over three days, 310,000 passengers and 41,000 vehicles crossed the bridge โ a 520% jump in people and 240% surge in cars compared to 2023โs Spring Festival. Talk about FOMO energy! ๐จ
Stretching 55 km across the Pearl River Delta, the HZMB isnโt just a marvel of engineering โ itโs turbocharging the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. Imagine blasting from Hong Kong SAR to mainland Zhuhai or Macao SAR in under an hour. ๐ Perfect for foodies chasing dim sum, entrepreneurs closing deals, or influencers snapping sunset bridge selfies!
This record-breaking flow signals growing economic ties in one of Asiaโs most dynamic regions. Who needs flying carpets when youโve got a bridge that moves millions? ๐๐ผ
