Alibaba Gaode further upgrades the "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Integration Travel" service

Alibaba (09988.HK)(BABA.US) subsidiary Amap announced that in response to the National Games officially opening this November, it will further upgrade its "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Integrated Travel" service and strengthen information exchange with the transportation departments of the three host cities, providing comprehensive support for transportation arrangements and citizens' travel during the event. Amap has significantly optimized service data to enhance the experience of lane-level navigation, intelligent traffic light countdowns, tunnel navigation, and other services already implemented in Hong Kong. For over 400 competition-related roads in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, Amap's engineering team is conducting on-site testing to ensure optimal navigation results.

During the National Games, Amap will work with partners in the Greater Bay Area to strengthen incentive measures, encouraging taxi fleet drivers to actively operate, ensuring that the transportation needs of citizens and travelers are fully met. Amap plans to launch "Support for the National Games" ride discount activities in Hong Kong, Macau, and Guangdong, providing users with taxi discount coupons.

Amap has established a cross-border event support team for the National Games, arranging for an expert team to closely coordinate with city event departments to ensure the smooth conduct of cross-border events such as the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Cycling Race and the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Marathon, as well as to ensure efficient travel for cross-border vehicles and the general public during the events.

To facilitate travel for people with disabilities, Amap's "Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Integrated Travel" service has added an "Accessible Mode," with plans to gradually expand it to Hong Kong and Macau; this feature currently covers 69 cities in mainland China
