Yang Jian and Liang Yiwen/ Shanghai Daily news

Construction began yesterday on the most difficult part of the Expo Boulevard, which officials hope will become one of the highlights of the Shanghai 2010 World Expo.

Several steel structures were erected yesterday morning above the foundation of what will become a three-level boulevard and one of the gateways to the Expo Park. They will be assembled into a structure shaped like the end of a horn pointing skyward that will be about the size of two basketball courts.
