Travel between Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao will become faster and more convenient because of a new transport service agreement. It will mean quicker transfers between ferries and airlines, providing a new green channel in the area.

Under the pact, passenger wait times will be reduced for boarding ferries, security checks and immigration procedures. The streamlined system should cut transfer time to about one hour.

More than 1.2 million people are expected to pass through Shenzhen Fuyong Port this year. About a third of them will enjoy this new service. And a plan to build a railway between Shenzhen and Hong Kong airports is being considered. Once built, it will only take 20 minutes to transfer between the two airports.
