Transportation resumes

Since the situation in Shanghai was brought under control by a series of preventive measures last month, domestic flights have resumed and the number of rail services has increased.

Moreover, in the end of May, four metro lines－numbers 3, 6, 10 and 16－resumed operations, along with 273 bus routes that cover the urban areas and provide access to the airport, railway stations, major hospitals and commercial districts.

After learning that metro services had resumed, Hao immediately bought a train ticket to Xuzhou. On May 26, armed with a negative result from a nucleic acid test conducted within the past 48 hours and a green health code, she took Line 10 to the railway station.

Under rules imposed by the Xuzhou government, Hao spent seven days in quarantine in a local hotel before being reunited with her family. Last weekend, she was especially happy to see her 18-year-old son, who will take the gaokao, the college entrance examination.

Zhu was not as lucky as Hao. The auditor first needed to travel to Jingzhou in Hubei province－about 220 kilometers from Wuhan－to spend seven days in quarantine, before her mother drove to Jingzhou to take her home.
