Travellers must use authorised buses, taxis at Huanggang Port, Hong Kong authorities say

Travellers heading to and from the revamped Huanggang Port must use authorised public transport services only, including pre-booked licensed taxi fleets, as other ride-hailing services would not be available inside the boundary control area, according to the Hong Kong government.

At a press conference on Wednesday, transport officials also urged travellers not to rush to use the new port in the initial phase of its operations.

Five days ahead of the expected opening of the Huanggang Port next Monday, the Transport Department explained the public transport arrangements connecting the revamped Huanggang Port to different parts of Hong Kong.

Sharing maps of the port’s Public Transport Interchange and its pickup points for franchised buses, urban and New Territories cabs, officials reminded those who wanted to book ride-hailing services to use only licensed taxi fleets.
