New Rule Set For Shipping On Suzhou Creek

Take a tour for a panorama on the Suzhou Creek will be hard to achieve, not only to the travellers, but also to the shipping workers.

A new regulation issued by Shanghai Shipping Administration Bureau blocks the east sect for traffic, Wen Hui Bao reported.

The five-kilomete-long river track, which locates from Wai Baidu bridge and Changshou Road bridge, will stage as scenic spot.

The middle 18.8-kilometer-long creek, which is from Changshou Road bridge to Huan Cao, opens partly to the cruisers.

The rest of the 29.3 kilometers-long-creek is mainly responsible for the water trasportation.
