Home China Guide Zhuhai Zhuhai Transportation

Zhuhai has perfect transportation networks and quite convenient external access. It initially established a comprehensive three-dimensional sea-land-air traffic and transportation network with the airport and the harbor as the center. The city has seven first-class ports, and is a mere ten-minute walk to and from Macau. Transportation over land is even more convenient. The Lingding Ocean Bridge leading to Hong Kong is under construction. Work has also started on construction of the Guangzhu railway, helping to establish in the near future the international city layout of Zhuhai.

Taxi

More than 1000 taxies pass through all of the streets in Zhuhai. They stop at the wave of a hand and charge a marked price. The starting fare is 10 yuan (13 yuan after 12:00 p.m.), plus 2.4 yuan for each additional kilometer after that.

Highway

Based on the high-grade arterial highways, the Zhuhai highway system centers on the city and radiates outward to nearby counties and towns.
