Improving Residential Conditions and Enhancing Mobility Convenience for Citizens through Bus Information System Implementation

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] A budget has been secured for a project to enhance the convenience of transportation-vulnerable individuals and general users in Yeosu City.

On the 15th, Kim Hoe-jae, a member of the Democratic Party of Korea (Jeonnam Yeosu-eul), announced that he secured a budget of 700 million KRW (210 million KRW national funds / 490 million KRW city funds) for the establishment of Yeosu City's metropolitan BIS (Bus Information System).

Through this, Yeosu City will be able to provide convenience not only to transportation-vulnerable individuals but also to general users who had difficulty searching for or obtaining information, as services such as identification of transportation-vulnerable persons, voice recognition guidance at bus stops, display of remaining bus seats, and electronic routes will be installed.

The 700 million KRW budget necessary for the establishment of Yeosu City's metropolitan Bus Information System was secured as Assemblyman Kim continuously paid attention to local issues.

With this project being finally selected in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's public contest, Yeosu City is expected to create a safe and highly visible transportation environment by promoting equal public transportation service use and convenience for citizens.

Assemblyman Kim Hoe-jae stated, “Yeosu City residents have continuously demanded improvements due to the lack of information provided to bus users,” adding, “I will continue to do my best to improve citizens' living environments through securing national funds and to solve local issues so that no region is left out of administrative support.”
