The Transport Department today (March 22) reminded members of the public and passengers who intend to travel via the land boundary control points during Easter and the Ching Ming Festival holidays to plan their journeys in advance and make their journeys during non-peak hours.
"Since a huge number of passengers are expected to travel via the land boundary control points during the holiday period, the waiting time for public transport services may be longer than usual if traffic at the control points is busy. Passengers should observe order and heed the advice from the on-site Police and staff of the public transport operators concerned," a department spokesman said.
The spokesman advised passengers to keep track of the latest traffic news broadcasts.
