Experts are recommending that the revamped Huanggang Port border crossing, set to reopen soon between Hong Kong and Shenzhen, should include a public transport link to Hong Kong International Airport. This suggestion stems from the checkpoint's proximity to mainland China's high-speed intercity rail network, which connects to Shenzhen airport. While the government plans to introduce seven franchised bus routes and extend six minibus routes to Huanggang, a tourism expert and a lawmaker are specifically advocating for a direct bus service to Hong Kong International Airport. They argue this would better utilize the location, especially given the connection between the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Intercity Railway and Shenzhen airport.
