Use WeChat to go from Gongbei to Hong Kong stops

A "one-ticket pass" will now take you from the MRT Station Bus 9 stop in Gongbei, across the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB), to any of nine destinations in Hong Kong. The entire fare is only 120 yuan ($17.50) per person.

The intermodal transport ticket is purchased on the WeChat Port Bus account. After providing information, the account will transmit two QR codes to the passenger's mobile phone. The first code is for getting on Bus 9 to the bridge; the second for a Hong Kong bus.

There is a transfer to through buses in the middle of the journey, but a combination ticket (yi piao tong一票通) covers the fares.
