ORGANIZERS will set up a roped-off area and may even suspend ticket sales to cope with anticipated large crowds at the Auto Shanghai 2011 show this weekend.
The Shanghai New International Expo Center was again packed with people yesterday as soon as doors opened at 9am, making it difficult to get a good look at the cars.
The queue was more than 500 meters for the hall exhibiting luxury cars by noon as visitors were eager to see the latest Ferrari and Lamborghini models.
Ticket sales will be limited if necessary today and tomorrow, said Liang Yingliang, the project director of the organizers. Visitors can not use weekend tickets to visit on a weekday, according to the show's hotline.
The organizers expected up to 160,000 visitors today.
Three temporary parking lots will be open at 378 Yanggao Road S., Shanghai Science and Technology Museum and Yuanshen Sports Center Stadium to ease traffic pressure on Longyang Road where the exhibition venue is located. Regular shuttle buses will be available between parking lots and the exhibition center.
Forty free shuttle buses will take visitors leaving the exhibition center to the Shiji Avenue subway station at 4:30pm. The Metro operator said crowd control measures will be put in place if needed at the Huamu Road Station on Metro Line 7.
