Public Parking Lot with 132 Spaces to Open Between Ewha Womans Univ. Station and Ahyeon Station

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Yuri] An underground public parking lot with a capacity of 132 vehicles will be built between Ewha Womans University Station and Ahyeon Station on Seoul Subway Line 2.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced that the amendment plan for the redevelopment promotion plan to establish an underground public parking lot in the Ahyeon 2 Redevelopment Promotion Zone in Ahyeon-dong 662, Mapo-gu, was "approved with modifications" at the 1st Seoul Metropolitan Urban Redevelopment Committee held on the 21st.

The location of the public parking lot will be underground on the site of a small park (4,149.4㎡) and road (1,208.6㎡) on the south side of Sinchon-ro, between Ewha Womans University Station and Ahyeon Station on Line 2, from the perspective of efficient land use. A total area of 5,358㎡ is planned on the first basement floor, with 132 parking spaces. To improve the safety and quality of the parking facility, it will be constructed through a design competition.

A Seoul city official stated, "Although the Ahyeon (traditional) market is located nearby, the local conditions show poor provision of parking services. The 2030 Seoul Living Area Plan also analyzed that securing parks and parking lots is necessary in the Ahyeon living area (Ahyeon-dong, Yeomni-dong, Gongdeok-dong, Daehyeong-dong). Therefore, securing this public parking lot is expected to greatly contribute to improving the parking environment in this area."
