Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail opened
Chief Executive Carrie Lam and Guangdong Governor Ma Xingrui jointly hosted the opening ceremony for the Hong Kong Section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link on September 22.
     Mrs Lam said the Hong Kong Section of the XRL links up the three rapidly developing leading cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area - Guangzhou, Shenzhen and Hong Kong. In addition to boosting the high speed passenger transport network in the bay area and promoting economic, social and cultural exchanges, it also connects Hong Kong with the Capital Economic Circle and Yangtze River Delta Region through the Beijing-Guangzhou Passenger Line and the Hangzhou-Fuzhou-Shenzhen Passenger Line.
     The construction of the Hong Kong Section of the XRL started in 2010. It spans 26 km and connects with the Mainland Section of the XRL and the 25,000 km-long national high speed rail network. Its service commenced on September 23.
