[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Incheon City will commence construction on the 2 km section of Section 4-1 (Changhuri Ferry Terminal to Gyodong Bridge Entrance), part of the unopened segment of the Ganghwa Coastal Circular Road, on the 24th.

The total project cost is 15.9 billion KRW, with completion scheduled for December 2023.

Once this project is completed, the travel time from Gyodong Bridge to Changhuri Ferry Terminal, which previously took about 20 minutes, will be reduced to 5 minutes, improving transportation convenience for tourists visiting Gyodongdo and Seokmodo and contributing to the revitalization of the local economy.

Out of the total 84.4 km of the Ganghwa Coastal Circular Road, 20 km across Sections 4 and 5 remain unopened.

An Incheon City official stated, "We have prioritized construction of Section 4-1 to connect the 5.5 km Section 2 segment from Daesan-ri to Dangsan-ri, completed at the end of June last year, with the northern Ganghwa area, and to restore the commercial district of Changhuri Ferry Terminal and promote balanced regional development."
