Railways operating again in flood-hit Liaoning
Although some traffic-flow problems still exist in Liaoning after Typhoon Damrey recently tore through the province in northeast China, the major railways are operating again today.
Suspended rail services along three major lines running through Liaoning, namely the Shenyang-Dalian, Shenyang-Shanhaiguan, and Shenyang-Dandong links, had been resumed by this noon as a result of more than 30 hours' continuous repair work, local railway authorities said.
The Shenyang-Shanhaiguan Railway, a section of the Beijing-Harbin railway line, serves as a major trunk connecting Beijing with the country's northeastern provinces.
Operation of all the bullet trains between Beijing and Shenyang, capital of Liaoning, which had been disrupted as of yesterday morning, has resumed so far, while other passenger trains in the province are expected to resume services gradually, said the Shenyang Railway Bureau.
But 236 roads were still closed this morning, according to the Liaoning Provincial Meteorological Bureau.
According to statistics from the provincial transportation department, traffic services on 24 major trunk highways, 36 county-level highways and 176 rural roads had been interrupted as of 6 am today.
The provincial highway department has sent nearly 4,500 workers armed with mechanical equipment to assist in the rescue and repair work.
Passenger transport services are expected to resume gradually today, but people traveling by motor vehicles to the port city of Dalian will likely encounter flooding, which may delay their journey.
