Traffic controls will be imposed on roads around the Shenzhen Convention and Exhibition Center, the venue for the China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF) from Tuesday to Nov. 21.

From 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., vehicles without a pass to the fair will not be allowed into the area bordered by Fuhua Road 3, Binhe Road near the exhibition center and sections of Jintian Road and Yitian Road.

Vehicles with passes would be allowed to park in car parks P0-P5 and those without passes could park at the nearby temporary P6-P10 car parks, with space for 1,850 vehicles. Temporary buses would transport visitors to the exhibition center, police said Thursday.

According to the fair organizer, more than 12,000 professionals had signed up for the fair, which is expected to attract 85,000 visitors a day.

The fair this year occupies nine halls of the convention and exhibition center, an area of 105,000 square meters, showcasing the latest developments in IT, Internet applications and other high-tech industries.

Tickets are available at Shenzhen Development Bank outlets or at the main entrance to the exhibition center during the fair.

Tickets are valid for one entry only during the six days.

Visitors can also register for tickets online at www.chtf.com, the organizer s official Web site and the Shenzhen Development Bank Web site, www.sdb.com.cn.

The CHTF s news center has opened a microblog on Sina.com.cn to provide live fair information updates.
