'It's a lifeline of efficiency,' says Kelvin Ko, former project director of the Kai Tak Sports Park. 'In just 15 minutes, I can go from Hong Kong West Kowloon to Shenzhen Futian in the Chinese mainland, connecting with suppliers and partners seamlessly.'
This rapid link, part of the Guangzhou–Shenzhen–Hong Kong high-speed rail, reached its 7th anniversary this month. It stands as a cornerstone of the Greater Bay Area's vision for cross-border collaboration and economic integration.
For the Kai Tak Sports Park—Hong Kong SAR's new international sports venue—the rail line has been a game-changer. Drawing on resources from the Greater Bay Area and the Yangtze River Delta, its construction highlights a shared commitment to world-class infrastructure.
As trains whisk passengers across borders in minutes, the journey itself becomes a narrative of innovation, cooperation, and forward momentum. For young athletes, business leaders, and sports fans alike, this level of connectivity is shaping the future of Hong Kong sports and entertainment.
