According to the border inspection station of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, as of 4:00 PM on April 27th, 2024, the number of vehicles entering and exiting through the Zhuhai Port of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge has exceeded 10 million since the opening of the bridge in October 2018.
The traffic flow at the Zhuhai Port of the bridge has been showing a rapid growth trend. In 2019, the number of vehicles passing through the port reached 860,000, and it surpassed 1.6 million in 2022. In 2023, with the resumption of normal customs clearance between Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao and the implementation of policies such as "Hong Kong vehicles heading north" and "Macao vehicles heading north," the port saw an explosive growth in traffic, with the number reaching 3.26 million, a daily average of over 8,900. As of 4:00 PM on April 27th, the number of vehicles entering and exiting through the Zhuhai Port this year has exceeded 1.58 million, a year-on-year increase of 113%, with a daily average of over 13,600 trips, and over 16,100 trips on weekends and holidays.
According to statistics, the border inspection station of the bridge has been handling an average of 69,900 inbound and outbound passengers per day this year, an increase of 56% compared to 2023, with a single-day peak of 144,000 passengers. Among them, Hong Kong and Macao residents accounted for 495,000 trips, or 60.06% of the total.
In addition to accelerating the connectivity between Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macao, the role of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge in connecting the domestic and international dual circulation is increasingly prominent. Over the past five years, cross-border logistics through the bridge has seen high growth, with a total of over 1.91 million inbound and outbound freight trucks passing through the Zhuhai Port. This year alone, it reached 184,900 trips, a year-on-year increase of over 21.77%, 7.39 times that of 2019.
To adapt to the continuous surge in vehicle traffic on the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the border inspection department has been continuously innovating management to greatly facilitate customs clearance. They actively promote data sharing, simplify border inspection filing procedures, and for drivers who have already completed border inspection "one-stop" driver filing or passenger fast lane filing, the system automatically shares the filed data, achieving paperless and electronic border inspection filing processes. In addition, the border inspection and inspection system for the 44 small vehicle lanes at the Zhuhai Port has been optimized and upgraded multiple times. Through innovative measures such as launching the "one-click login" auxiliary control system, implementing a new mobile inspection mode, and canceling the driver card reading process, the inspection process has been continuously streamlined, increasing the maximum hourly throughput of small passenger vehicles at the port from 440 vehicles to 1,100 vehicles.

据边检部门介绍,港珠澳大桥珠海公路口岸车流一直呈现快速增长态势。2019年经口岸通行的车辆达86万辆次,2022年超过160万辆次。2023年,随着粤港澳三地恢复正常通关,“港车北上”“澳车北上”政策的落地,口岸车流出现爆发式增长,达到326万辆次,日均超过8900辆次。截至4月27日16时,今年经珠海口岸出入境车辆超过158万辆次,同比增长113%,日均超过1.36万辆次,周末及节假日均超过1.61万辆次。
据统计,今年以来,港珠澳大桥边检站日均验放出入境旅客6.99万人次,较2023年日均验放量增长56%,单日最高验放量为14.4万人次。其中,港澳居民49.5万人次,占总人数的60.06%。
除了加速粤港澳三地互联互通以外,港珠澳大桥在联通国内国际双循环中的作用也日益凸显。五年多来,港珠澳大桥跨境物流迎来高增长,经珠海公路口岸出入境货车累计超过191.07万辆次。其中,今年达到18.49万辆次,同比增长超过21.77%,是2019年的7.39倍。
为适应港珠澳大桥车辆不断激增的新形势,边检部门在高度便利化通关方面持续创新管理,积极推动数据共享共用,简化边检备案手续,对已经办理边检“一站式”驾驶人备案或旅客快捷通道备案的驾驶人,系统自动备案资料共享,实现边检备案环节的无纸化、电子化。同时,对珠海公路口岸44条小车通道的边检查验系统进行多次优化升级,通过推出“一键登录”辅助控制系统、实施移动查验新模式、取消司机卡读取流程等创新举措,不断精简查验流程,将口岸单边小客车每小时最高通行量从440辆提升至1100辆。
