[quote=JABAROOTOO,38072]THE REASON FOR THE REDUCTION IN THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC THROUGH THE LOCKS The lock gates are being extended to facilitate the new water levels. The northern locks have just been closed after the reopening of the southern passage. This is expected to be completed by June 30th and causes a reduction of up to 60% in the flow of traffic as upstream and downstream flow of traffic alternates every 24hrs. So only what is considered essential traffic is passing through at the moment. Mean while upstream here in Chongqing, the city is experiencing some of the lowest river water levels in years, especially in the Jialing River, a major tributary which splits the city in two. This summer may very well bring on another severe drought in the region if little rain falls in the catchment areas.[/quote]
