The last of the makeshift homes being built for residents who lost their houses in the July 21 floods will be completed by Monday, and 41 families have already moved in.

"The rains off and on after the storm on July 21 have jeopardized our construction process a little. But people have been working around the clock in recent days, making sure all the temporary houses are finished before Monday, as scheduled," said Liu Haiqi, a publicity official with Beijing Municipal Commission of Housing and Urban-Rural Development.

"The last site will be thoroughly checked on Sunday night and the construction will be finished on time," said Guo Haigang, an official from Beijing Construction Engineering Group, one of two construction companies working on the project.
