From June 12 to 13, the management department of Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge evaluated the overall planning and conceptual design works of bidding companies to develop tourism and build supporting facilities on East Artificial Island, according to reports from Xinhua.

The management department of the bridge will announce the winning team in the near future.

According to the construction design plan of the bridge, East Artificial Island is positioned as a comprehensive operation center integrating transportation, management, service, rescue, and sightseeing functions.
