Wang Zifang, a Beijing-based expert on weather forecasting, said Beijing's air quality would be excellent until Monday.

"During August 19-21, the wind is forecast to change direction and may bring pollutants from cities to the southeast of Beijing, such as Tianjin and Langfang," Wang said.

Du attributed good air quality to efforts made by Beijing to curb air pollution over the last nine years, especially this year.

Beijing municipal government said it had poured more than 140 billion yuan (US$20.5 billion) since 1998 into more than 200 projects dedicated to improving the city's air quality.

In the run-up to the Beijing Games, the host city implemented some drastic measures to reduce pollution.

In one of these measures, Beijing has imposed an odd-even restriction system based on licence plate numbers that would keep vehicles off the road on alternate days from July 20 to September 20.
