THE smog shrouding north and east China has not only led to health concerns but has disrupted road and air transport as the annual holiday period got under way.
Sections of more than 20 expressways in the northern, eastern and central provinces of Hebei, Liaoning, Jiangsu, Anhui, Shandong and Henan were closed for heavy fog yesterday morning, according to the Ministry of Transport.
The situation was better than on Tuesday when sections of more than 30 inter-provincial highways in north China were closed for poor visibility. The roads were reopened by noon yesterday.
