More than 1,500 residents from Hong Kong visited the revamped Huanggang Port border crossing on Sunday as part of an official outreach effort. The tour, coordinated by the Security Bureau, allowed participants to travel to the site via franchised buses and cross-boundary coaches from various districts to experience the logistics of the new facility firsthand.

According to the Security Bureau, the primary goal of the visit was to improve public familiarity with the updated immigration and customs clearance processes. By touring the new port building in organized groups, officials aim to ensure a smoother transition once the facility officially opens to the general public. The event served as a practical test of the port's capacity to handle cross-boundary traffic and provided residents with a preview of the modernized infrastructure. While the government emphasized the efficiency of the new transport arrangements, the tour also functioned as a promotional event to build confidence in the revamped border infrastructure before its full-scale operational launch.
