The Force held an opening ceremony for its Operational Base at Heung Yuen Wai Boundary Control Point (BCP) on June 2.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Commissioner Tang Ping-keung said that the new BCP is the first BCP to adopt the design concept of “direct access to people and vehicles” to increase convenience of crossing the border. In order to meet the policing challenges arising from the new BCP, the Force has established the Heung Yuen Wai Operational Base and the Heung Yuen Wai BCP Unit, which operates round-the-clock to maintain order of the BCP and take charge of the operation of the Police Reporting Centre at the Passenger Terminal Building and the Enhanced Under Vehicle Surveillance System.
The Commissioner said that the BCP has been operating efficiently since the commissioning of its cargo clearance facilities in August 2020. He added that the Force is well-prepared for the commissioning of the passenger facilities. He hoped that the passenger facilities would soon enter service when the epidemic is over, so as to foster closer communication among residents in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
