Yangzhou offers free transportation and parking during Spring Festival

Yangzhou in East China's Jiangsu province will provide free public transportation and parking services to locals and tourists during the upcoming Lunar New Year holiday, which will run from Jan 21 to 27, according to the authorities. 

Specifically, tourists and locals can board the city's buses for free during the seven-day holiday. Private drivers can also park their vehicles at any temporary parking lot in the city for free. 

More buses will operate at peak hours to cater to the increase in travel needs during this period, said a local official.
