    Cargo clearance facilities at Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point to open on August 26 (with photos) The Government today (August 21) announced that the Heung Yuen Wai (HYW) Boundary Control Point (BCP) will be commissioned on August 26. In view of the COVID-19 epidemic, both Guangdong and Hong Kong have agreed to open first the cargo clearance facilities for use by cross-boundary goods vehicles. "The opening ceremony for the new BCP will be held at Liantang Port in Shenzhen in the morning of August 26, while the cargo clearance facilities will open for cross-boundary goods vehicles from 4pm that day," a Government spokesman said. In view of the development of the epidemic, the new BCP will not be opened at this stage for Guangdong-Hong Kong cross-boundary private cars, cross-boundary coaches and cross-boundary hire cars under the regular quota, as well as passenger clearance services in order to reduce the flow of people between the Mainland and Hong Kong. The Liantang Port/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point is the seventh land-based control point at the Hong Kong-Shenzhen boundary. It is named HYW BCP in Hong Kong and Liantang Port in Shenzhen. At the initial stage of the commissioning of the HYW BCP, its operating hours for cargo clearance will be 7am to 10pm daily, which are in line with those of the adjacent Man Kam To and Sha Tau Kok BCPs. The spokesman said that the HYW BCP in Hong Kong is connected to the Heung Yuen Wai Highway, which was completed and opened last year, while the Liantang Port is connected to the Shenzhen Eastern Corridor.

  • Paper on Transport Arrangements Upon the Commissioning Of
    立法會 Legislative Council LC Paper No. CB(4)1003/18-19(04) Ref. : CB4/PL/TP Panel on Transport Meeting on 21 June 2019 Background brief on the transport arrangements upon the commissioning of Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point Purpose This paper provides background information on the Liantang/Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point ("LT/HYW BCP") project. It also summarizes the major views and concerns expressed by Legislative Council ("LegCo") Members on the project. Background 2. According to the Administration, at the time when the LT/HYW BCP project was announced for implementation in 2008,1 the overall distribution of cross-boundary vehicular traffic was mainly concentrated in the western part of the territory through the Shenzhen Bay Port and the Lok Ma Chau BCP. Owing to physical constraints, the two existing BCPs on the eastern side of the territory to access eastern Shenzhen and Guangdong, viz Man Kam To and Sha Tau Kok BCPs, could hardly be expanded to meet the anticipated future demand for cross-boundary traffic. LT/HYW BCP will connect with the Shenzhen Eastern Corridor in Shenzhen and provide an access to eastern Guangdong via the Shenzhen-Huizhou and Shenzhen-Shantou Expressways. It will shorten the travelling time between Hong Kong and eastern Guangdong, southern Fujian and Jiangxi. The LT/HYW BCP is designed to handle 30 000 passenger trips and 17 850 vehicle trips daily. 3. The LT/HYW BCP project includes the construction of an approximate 4.8 km dual two-lane road tunnel between Princess Hill and Lung Shang, i.e.
