Due to the sharp increase in passenger flow, the Khorgos checkpoint proactively publishes forecasts for peak loads, monitors changes in passenger flow intensity in real time, installs additional signs and navigation markers, and promptly opens additional crossing lanes to ensure a safe and orderly border crossing regime.
Currently, 9 international bus routes between China and Kazakhstan have already been opened through the Khorgos checkpoint. -0-
