HONG KONG Development Secretary Paul Chan has announced the government plans to develop the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge boundary crossing into a major transportation hub when it opens in late 2016.
Public transport will be provided between Hong Kong boundary-crossing facilities and the airport, Tung Chung, Tuen Mun and other parts of Lantau, creating a hub for the west of Hong Kong, the Government Information Service reported.
"We are also considering the future expansion programme of the airport, including a three-runway system," said Mr Chan, adding that the Airport Authority is working on a development strategy for the northern commercial district at Chek Lap Kok.
Mr Chan added that travellers coming to Hong Kong via the bridge will be able to patronise commercial and tourism facilities in North Lantau, creating business and employment opportunities.
