WHAT was supposed to be a weekend trip to a famous mountain resort town turned tragic for Shanghai travelers when their bus overturned on a wet expressway in neighboring Zhejiang Province.

One person died and dozens were injured. Among the injured, six are in critical conditions.

The bus, belonging to a Shanghai tourism transport company, overturned at about 9:30am on G2501 near Zhejiang's Hangzhou city.

The bus left Shanghai early in the morning and was heading to Jiangxi Province's Sanqing Moutain for a three-day trip.

A hospital in Hangzhou said 46 people have been admitted to the hospital for treatment.

It's the second expressway overturn in Zhejiang within hours as a passenger bus overturned in its way from Hangzhou to Shanghai late yesterday at about 7pm. More than 40 passengers were injured.
