Selected for comprehensive preliminary feasibility study including 10 new road projects such as Geoje Jangmok~Changwon Gusan (National Road 5), Namhae~Yeosu (National Road 77)
22 routes totaling 176.94 km, with a budget of 4.3606 trillion KRW
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Son Tae-seok] Gyeongsangnam-do announced on the 10th that 22 major central road projects in the province have been selected as subjects for the Ministry of Economy and Finance's comprehensive preliminary feasibility study under the '5th National Road and National Local Road 5-Year Plan.'
The selected major central roads include the National Road No. 5 Geoje?Changwon sea section (11.2 km), National Road No. 77 Namhae?Yeosu sea section (7.3 km), and National Alternative Bypass Road No. 35 Yangsan Habuk?Gasan (19.5 km), totaling 176.94 km in length. The total project cost amounts to 4.3606 trillion KRW. In particular, the National Road No. 77 Namhae?Yeosu road is a long-cherished project of the Yeongnam and Honam region residents, who wish for regional balanced development and East-West harmony.
Among these, once the National Road No. 5 Geoje Jangmok?Changwon Gusan sea section is connected, it is expected to contribute not only to the recovery and development of local industries struggling due to the downturn in the shipbuilding and machinery industries but also to the innovation of the South Coast tourism industry linked with new tourist courses, the province said.
