Yongin 'Goryeo Comprehensive Logistics Intersection~Hagal Intersection' to Expand to 6 Lanes

[Asia Economy (Yongin) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Yongin City in Gyeonggi Province will begin expansion construction in March on Deokyeong-daero from Goryeo Comprehensive Logistics Intersection to Hagal Intersection (in front of Cheongmyeong IC), connected to the 'Singal~Suji' road, which is scheduled to open in October.

Yongin City announced on the 14th that, anticipating a sharp increase in traffic volume once the Singal~Suji road opens, it has completed the detailed design to expand the section from Goryeo Comprehensive Logistics Intersection to Hagal Intersection (920m) from the current 20m wide, 4-lane road (two-way) to 28.5m wide, 6-lane road (two-way). The city plans to select a construction company next month and start construction in March.

Previously, the city began the first phase of compensation last year with a budget of 6.1 billion KRW for the expansion project costing 23.2 billion KRW. This year, it has set a budget of 14.6 billion KRW to complete the compensation.

The city expects that after the Singu-ro expansion and the completion of this section's expansion by the end of next year, traffic demand concentrated on Local Route 23 east of the Gyeongbu Expressway will be dispersed.

A city official stated, "Yongin Urban Planning Road Jung-1-94 will enable the Singu-ro, which connects densely populated areas of Yongin City north to south, to function properly and help alleviate habitual congestion occurring around Singal Five-way Intersection."
