Dong Zhen/Shanghai Daily news

The thousands of migrant workers toiling away at the future Hongqiao transport hub are luckier than their millions of counterparts as they now have much-improved living facilities at their construction sites in the city, Shanghai Daily reported.

The No. 7 Branch of Shanghai Construction Group, one of the operators of the project, has completed 33 new dorm buildings, covering an area of 40,000 square meters, since this June, and more than 3,000 workers have moved in.
