Fog, repair work cause expressway gridlock  

京港澳高速韶关段大塞车 “长龙”达十余公里

随着冷空气的再次来袭，中国南北交通大动脉京港澳高速公路韶关段再次出现拥堵不堪局面。

Shaoguan (CNS) -- The Shaoguan section of the Beijing, Hong Kong and Macao Expressway was gridlocked Tuesday because of heavy fog and repair work.

Closure of the Yunyan to Dongtian sections of the expressway combined with the lingering fog led to traffic being backed up for more than 10 kilometers. Visibility was only 20 meters in some sections.

The highway repair work, which began Monday, ended at 6 p.m. Tuesday, according to the local traffic authority.
