“南下+北上”粤港澳大湾区跨境交通迈入双向直通新时代

Core Viewpoint - The "Yue Che Nan Xia" policy officially allows private vehicles from Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Jiangmen, and Zhongshan to enter Hong Kong's urban area, marking a new phase of direct access between Guangdong and Hong Kong [1][6]. Group 1: Policy Implementation - The policy allows eligible private vehicles to stay in Hong Kong for a maximum of three days [1][8]. - The first phase of the policy was implemented on November 15, allowing vehicles to only stop at the automated parking lot at the Hong Kong port, while the second phase expands access to the urban area [8]. - The initial daily quota for vehicles under this policy is set at 100 [8]. Group 2: Operational Enhancements - The border inspection department has upgraded its "one-stop" inspection system to facilitate smoother entry for vehicles, optimizing document reading and vehicle inspection processes [10]. - Dedicated personnel have been assigned to provide consultation and guidance to enhance the crossing experience for drivers [10]. Group 3: Cross-Border Traffic Dynamics - The policy complements the "Hong Kong vehicles northbound" and "Macau vehicles northbound" initiatives, with over 3.27 million crossings by Hong Kong and Macau single-plate vehicles recorded this year, reflecting a 25.4% year-on-year increase [12]. - The interaction between the "Yue Che Nan Xia" policy and the two northbound policies fosters closer ties in trade and tourism among the Greater Bay Area [12].
