I finally got to cross this bridge/tunnel last year enroute to my destination in Jiangmen. This year I will go from HKG using Uber to the nearest customs facility in Shenzhen. From there, friends will give me a ride to their hometown of Humen. This will work out best for my trip. The bridge and tunnel were interesting, and I even made a video about the journey, but Shenzhen will work better.

i suggest them to make a high speed tram in on the bridge, if they are so good at building rails why not use the skill here

failure? i just had a 1 hour traffic jam?!?!?!

Just to say: W Hong Kong (hotel) is next to Cullinan (as you already know) and one of the towers is the hotel.

During peak hours at high traffic stations the Trains could literally be tailgating each other, one train leaves and not even 20 seconds the other train comes in

6:21 I love the beautiful stations, the rainbow one in the left-bottom corner "Choi Hung" station means Rainbow in chinese so the walls are literally rainbow colored, the station right after it is Diamond Hill, with a dark blue wall with white dots, really makes it look much better.

2:51 You can also do it at most convience stores like 7/11 and Circle K, and you can also apply for automatic recharging everytime the balance runs out above the age of 13.

I like the colour in the station😄😄

Alright, I can give an updated comment as I just went last week. So, lotta comments as well as the video in general are correct. It's a technical marvel, it is desperately underused (I timed a car every 10 or so seconds during my crossing on the bus). It would have succeeded more with a train, or at least better connecti9n with a train. However another comment is also correct - a lot of it is down to the current border system. If vehicles were allowed to cross freely it'd definitely be used far more. You realistically need 3 number plates currently, HK, Macau, Chinese (I saw a Tesla with exactly that!) to fully make use of the bridge. It's slso clearly made with a thought to serve mainlanders and commercial traffic to get to HK via Macau, less HK'ers to visit Macau For that It has advantages to the ferry especially if you are commercial as it connects nicely near the port area. Also I noticed in terms of people, the flow is actually not that bad - but they are all on buses due to the private vehicle restrictions. It's still not that much compared to what they built it for. In all it feels like it could still work yet with some tweaks. particularly on the political/border front and being better integrated to the rail system for passenger use on the HK side. I'm pretty sure in time usage will increase as China integrates it's SARs more politically. But the cost of maintenance as well as the size of the border facilities in the meantime really makes you think that they did miscalculate the present. Conclusion: I'd say its a failure. I'd drop the colossal. I'd add watch this space.

Why you roasting my city taxi 😢

I live in hong kong

if the MTR is the best , little john is gonna have a building spree , were gonna have Steel Friendly Wood Trains

Its a version yes, but ' copycat' is just pandering to the china copies everything moniker - ultimately there's only so much variation (basically do just about everything) one can do if you want a fully inclusive experience. To be fair you actually commented on the differences, - and elephant in the room they look totally different - its just your cheap title.

Hong Kong cool Tao

Cost blowout of almost double is not too bad these days, considering other major projects are blowing out by more than triple

The traffic flow is more than 10,000 cars on daily basis and you call it a failure. 😂😂😂😂

It is incomprehensible that HK taxis only accept cash. Imagine travellers arriving at HK international airport and being told by the taxi queue staff “HK dollar only”. Asia’s world city? Pardon? It’s all about vested interests.

Rail line missing over bridge

There used to be nissan cedric Y31 taxis on the road, i heard that it is difficult to source spare parts and not reliable compared to the crown comfort, taxi companies all go for toyota. LPG is the only source of fuel for taxis in HK, thus no other cars were factory fitted with LPG besides the crown comfort, nissan cedric Y31 and the current JPN taxi(called comfort taxi in hk market). Which makes no choice for other brands. Why not you say as for now Toyota is reliable for business vehicles ?😂

happy news

Great video but your wrong about Macau. Just like Hong Kong they drive on the left like here in the UK, not on the right. This was due to Macau being a former Portuguese colony and at that time, Portugal also drove on the left before switching to the right some years later but Macau never did follow suit.

I’m not impressed by Zurich airport even if it’s the international airport of my birth canton

Looks like doha airport

These Toyota Crowns & Nissan Cesdrics are big & specious with big windows. These days, huntch back compact small taxis with small windows look really stupid & not practical when you have luggages.

They used to have Toyota crown taxi in Singapore too had so many memories riding in one now all the taxis in Singapore are replaced by hybrids like Prius and Hyundai ioniq

There are also blue and green cabs

There are also blue and green versions

And the supposed 'cost' quoted here for infrastructure does NOT include any 4eserves for preventative maintenance. China Rail loses about 40 million dollars PER DAY.

How is it a failure and it works project escalation if not unusual l am in construction work

Financial "failures" is not a concern to me, as long as the safety of the bridge is looked after.

We already know it won't be completed in 2026, the pandemic and other issues will delay it further. They talk about 2030 now.

All of these massive bridges being built in different countries is like the modern day cold War. Nothing but a pissing contest.

Ya Orlando... blood sucking theme parks

But what about near by Labs ?

...but Zhuhai is 10 time better than Orlando 🥰🥰🥰

Are you Team Orlando or Team Zhuhai? Share your thoughts below! 🎢🌏

I see the Toyota Crown taxi as a symbol of Hong Kong. They should stay.

Excellent! I've been on the MTR numerous times and have been impressed every time. Great video...thanks!

never heard anything about how they shake so bad?

I like the old ones

This is absolutely a success. Who else has done such a thing. After all they didn't borrow the money from you 😂

Delusions of grandeur - that's the hallmark of China's current leader! This bridge is one of the best examples.The higher you fall, the harder it is.

Macau also has left hand traffic

American jealousy creats employment.

It seems like they will have to switch left-driving Hong-Kong to right-driving. Then reduce bureaucracy for both private and business vehicles. Minimise toll tarifs; to match perceived benefits to cost in the minds of users.

I have fond memories growing up in HK in the early 80's i was 6 years old and used to get myself from school in Kowloon back home on HK island by bus, Star Ferry and a taxi. It was so long ago but i still remember the plastic seat covers and the meter flag the driver would drop when the fair started. I loved all the extra green lite up plastic markers on the corners of the bonnet (hood) they added to them. The taxis are some of the strongest memories I have of Hong Kong.

design an electric vehicle that switches the maneuver from left to right and vice versa. problem solved. (partially) haha

The residential building shown is the pavilia farm,known as 柏傲莊，it can be entered through exit B at tai wai station or through floors 2 and 5 at the wai.
