I was going to translate this good news in 新京报/The Beijing News: The completion and opening of the New State Highway 110. That’s good because it means passenger and freight transport between Beijing and parts northwest will be separated, which will hopefully relieve traffic pressure on the Badaling Expressway.
Trouble is I just discovered that half of this post just disappeared into the ether. Most, most, most irritating considering the amount of time and effort that took. Well, not half, but the final dozen paragraphs, everything from the caption of the second photo on. Infuriating.
