A number of cities in East China's Jiangsu Province have resumed daily commute to and from Shanghai and eased quarantine measures for travelers from the neighboring megacity, in the latest efforts to resume normal traffic in the Yangtze River Delta region as Shanghai rises from the shadow of a stormy Omicron wave.
Daily commutes to Shanghai will resume in an orderly manner starting Monday for people who have fixed residence or workplace in Kunshan, Jiangsu Province, the local epidemic prevention and control authority announced on Sunday.
This move signals the progressive resumption of normal traffic in the Yangtze River Delta region and an important step to further speed up the restoration of normal production and life while striking a balance between epidemic prevention and control with economic and social development in the Yangtze River Delta region.
According to a statement released by the Kunshan epidemic prevention and control headquarters, commuters can travel between the two cities with electronic passes obtained by registering their personal information in a mobile app, a letter of commitment and negative results for nucleic acid testing obtained within 24 hours.
