The five

new berths and wharfs will become an important channel for sand and gravel export, providing more convenient and efficient transportation channels for sand and gravel production enterprises, and the abundant sand and gravel resources in Yangjiang will also bring important support to the construction industry in the region and its surrounding areas, especially in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
