the highways department inspected the bridge and found that only the inspection platform rails were damaged by the collision, and that the structural integrity of the bridge was not jeopardised. in the days following the incident there were calls in local media for the government to build a second link to the airport. in fact, such a link is already under construction: the tuen mun–chek lap kok link is a road tunnel being built as part of the hong kong–zhuhai–macau bridge project.
