mark their passing in a trail of lights at the Hong Kong Island entrance to the Cross-Harbour Tunnel at Causeway Bay. The trail winds away at the top to the Island Eastern Corridor,

which connects with Hong

Kong's second harbour crossing, the Eastern Harbour Tunnel. A third tunnel in the western harbour is rapidly

nearing completion as part of the major projects being built in conjunction with Hong Kong's new international airport at Chek Lap Kok.

Passengers queue for the express service to Stanley,

a popular shopping and dining

destination for visitors

and residents. Increased competition between Hong Kong's three main bus lines has seen the introduction of new, air-conditioned vehicles

at reasonable fares. Several

services run across the border into Guangdong Province and are increasingly patronised by tourists and business travellers.
