Phase II construction of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Logistics Park in Hezhou area has begun, and is expected to be put into operation in early 2024, announced by staff members of China Construction Third Bureau First Engineering on May 24.

The 128,000-square-meter (31.6-acre) park has a floorage of 143,100 sq m (35.4 acres). Plans are for it to become a global supply chain service center that features functions of logistics control, supply chain finance, information consulting, and professional services.

Located near Exit 1 of the extension line of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB), the park connects with the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin in the south and forms an efficient transportation channel to the east with the Jinhai Avenue Bridge, Huangmao Sea Channel, Zhuhai (Jinwan) Airport, Zhuhai Port, and Zhuhai West Railway Station. Vehicles traveling from the park via the HZMB can reach Hong Kong within an hour.

Of note, Phase I of the park has finished construction, which includes an export supervision warehouse, bonded warehouses, and customs inspection fields, and is expected to begin operation in the second quarter of 2023.

Innovative customs clearance policies will be applied in the park to achieve mutual customs recognition at both the park and the HZMB. All goods are also guaranteed comprehensive in-transit supervision.
