Incheon City Conducts Full Inspection and Maintenance of 7,498 Bus Stops... 1,779 Unused Locations
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Incheon City announced on the 24th that it is conducting a full survey of 7,498 bus stops ahead of the city bus route reorganization scheduled for December this year.
The city has identified that due to simultaneous urban development projects across Incheon, there are many unused bus stops where buses do not stop.
Accordingly, through a focused investigation of 1,779 unused stops registered in the Bus Transportation Management Support System, unused shelters that are in good condition will be relocated to stops where shelters have not yet been installed or where old shelters need replacement. Additionally, unused bus stop signs that detract from the urban landscape will be removed all at once.
The 5,719 currently used stops will be inspected for appropriate location and maintained considering surrounding road conditions and traffic situations.
Among bus stops separated by bus types such as village buses, trunk buses, and branch buses, those with fewer operating routes will be integrated to enhance transfer convenience.
Along with this, stops with names that do not correspond to nearby facilities and may cause confusion among citizens will be investigated and renamed to reflect regional representation.
