The Huangmaohai Sea-Crossing Passage is approximately 31 kilometers long, with the sea-crossing section measuring about 14 kilometers. It is designed with a standard of a six-lane expressway in both directions, with a designed speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

As the western extension of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, the link will boost travel across the Greater Bay Area (GBA).

The Huangmaohai Sea-Crossing Passage began construction in June 2020. The Huangmaohai Sea-Crossing Passage is the first cross-sea passage project to start construction after the release of the "Outline Development Plan for the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area".
