http://www.news.com.au/breaking-news/epic-120km-china-traffi c-jam-returns/story-e6frfku0-1225913500463#ixzz0yNIclOC6 A HUGE traffic snarl stretching at least 120km reappeared in northern China today, with thousands of cargo trucks stuck in a bottleneck. State television broadcast images of a long line of mostly cargo trucks inching slowly through Inner Mongolia on a major highway leading towards Beijing that has come to symbolise China's traffic gridlock problem. "You could say the highway has become a big parking lot," a CCTV reporter at the scene said, estimating the number of vehicles stuck in the congestion at more than 10,000. In August, state media said some drivers were stuck in a huge traffic jam on the route for nine days. |
