JAMS * Taiwan - Long haul home begins

HEAVY TOLL: Most freeway traffic is running smoothly, but this would be small comfort for drivers stuck in a slow moving, 4km mess inside the Hsuehshan Tunnel

Taipei,Taiwan -The Taipei Times, by JENNY W. HSU -Feb 10, 2008: -- An estimated 2.6 million vehicles hit the road yesterday, making it the busiest day of the Lunar New Year holiday, the National Freeway Bureau said, urging the public to use public transport... The bureau said that yesterday and today were expected to be peak travel days because most people would be heading back to work tomorrow after the Lunar New Year break... A slow-moving, 4km line of cars was reported inside the Hsuehshan Tunnel for several hours as travelers headed north from Ilan County... Vehicles were reported to be moving as slowly as 20kph on several sections of freeway... The freeways will be toll-free at these times... (Video from YouTube, by thaid2 -January 28, 2008: "It is getting congested in front of Taipei Station" - It advances from the Taipei Station of congestion front. The car interrupts fast though it terribly crowds. Congestion)
