2022 Hangzhou Asian Games suspension order: When exactly does the suspension begin? Attached is the latest official news

This year, our country will host the 19th Asian Games, and the host city is Hangzhou, Zhejiang. As for the Asian Games events, I believe many of you have also seen related reports on the Internet. Based on past experience, major sporting events usually involve work stoppages. So what are the provisions of the suspension order for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games? When exactly does the shutdown begin? The latest official news is as follows:

1. 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games suspension order

According to the latest response from the Hangzhou Municipal Urban and Rural Construction Committee on April 10, 2022, no notification has been received from the Provincial Construction Department and Hangzhou City regarding the Hangzhou Asian Games suspension order, and it has not yet been clarified. This means that the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games may or may not be suspended. However, some enterprises may be required to suspend operations. For example, enterprises that produce high dust and consume high energy may be forced to suspend operations, but the details still need to wait for official notification and arrangements. Below is a list of industries that may face shutdowns during the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games:

1. First, all construction sites in the city will be shut down

Because construction sites generate a lot of dust, but now all urban construction sites will carry out dust control. However, construction sites near the Asian Games venues may face suspension of work if dust pollution is not prevented. Generally, the construction site must be fully enclosed, the sand and soil on the construction site must be fully covered, the road surface on the construction site must be fully hardened, the demolition project must be 100% watered to suppress dust, the wheels and bodies of vehicles leaving the construction site must be 100% clean, and the sites that are not yet developed must be 100% greened.

2. Concrete (including premixed mortar) production enterprises

During the 16th Asian Games held in Guangzhou in 2010, all concrete production companies in the city were ordered to stop production. According to the notification, all construction sites in Guangzhou will be shut down and concrete (including premixed mortar) manufacturers will stop production from 18 days before the opening of the Asian Games to three days after the closing of the Asian Para Games. Therefore, Hangzhou may also take such measures, but the specific details will depend on the notification arrangements.

3. The third is to control construction dust and noise

The first stage is that while construction continues across the city, construction sites must be rectified to meet pollution emission standards. The city must control construction dust, noise and other pollution emissions one year in advance. The second stage is during the opening period of the Asian Games, during which all construction sites across the city will stop any construction work that may generate dust, noise, volatile organic solvents and other environmental pollution.

2. When will the suspension of work for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games begin?

The suspension of work for the Hangzhou Asian Games may start from mid-to-late August 2022, which is about half a month before the opening ceremony. Because according to the Hangzhou Asian Games, it will start on September 10, 2022 and end on September 25, so 15 days before September 10, that is, around August 25, work will be suspended one after another. In addition to the main host city of Hangzhou, the Hangzhou Asian Games also has co-host cities, namely Ningbo, Wenzhou, Jinhua, Shaoxing, and Huzhou, all of which have competition areas. Whether construction will be suspended at that time will also depend on the notification and arrangements of the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Construction.

In general, the latest news on the suspension order for the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games is that the official has not yet received any relevant notice, and the suspension time will generally start in mid-August, and will not start in June as said on the Internet.
