Road Transportation Sectors to Stem Spread of SARS Through Travel
The Chinese Ministry of Communications said Friday that the national road transportation sectors are taking sound measures to stem the spread of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) through travel.

The expressway construction headquarters in northwest China's Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region have required all staff members most of whom are migrant workers from rural areas, to register their personal data and to ensure that their construction sites and residences are sterilized every day.

In Beijing, 149 wagons have been assigned for the transport of emergency goods needed in the city.

Northeast China's Jilin Province has also made detailed preparations to prevent the virus from spreading through vehicles and bus stations. Some high-tech monitoring systems have been set up to closely monitor the exit and entry of buses.

In north China's Hebei Province, staff in bus stations or on buses have been required to check the temperature of all passengers and to report the suspected SARS cases immediately.
