US$300m postal center in North China opens
( 2002-06-19 08:55) (8)

A 250 million yuan (US$30.1 million) postal sorting center opened in Tianjin on Tuesday, the largest of its kind in north China.

The 140,000-square-meter center comprises a mail sorting section and mail transportation section, key parts of which are automatically controlled by computers.

The computerized sorting section has greatly improved workers' efficiency. With the help of machines, they can sort 30,000 pieces of mail an hour, 10 times more than by the former manual system.

It is estimated the center may handle more than 900 million pieces of mail annually.
