Lotus Bridge

About

Lotus Bridge (Ponte Flor de Lótus) is a cross-border bridge linking the Cotai reclamation area of Macau with Hengqin Island in Zhuhai, Guangdong, mainland China. The bridge is a road crossing between mainland China and Macau. Since December 2014, it has been open 24 hours per day. The bridge is located about 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) west of the Macau International Airport. The bridge has three lanes in each direction and follows Macau's rule of the road of driving on the left. The exit roads leaving the bridge on the mainland Chinese side have a special arrangement to facilitate switching westbound traffic from Macau driving on the left to driving on the right in mainland China.
