[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] On the 12th, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced the completion of the expansion and paving construction of the entrance road to Ip-gok County Park located in Ip-gok-ri, Sanin-myeon.

Ip-gok County Park is the only county park in Hapcheon-gun. Although it is a local tourist attraction visited by 300,000 tourists annually, visitors have long experienced great inconvenience due to the narrow entrance road.

Accordingly, Hapcheon-gun invested a total project cost of 4.65 billion KRW to expand and pave a 1.8 km section of the entrance road, maintain sidewalks, and construct a bridge for the park parking lot entrance. The project began in December 2018 and was completed this month.

In particular, a new bridge was constructed to ensure smooth access to the county park and the Onsaemiro Park parking lot currently under development. Nighttime landscape lighting was installed within the park to promote it as a nighttime tourist attraction.

A county official stated, "The completion of the expansion and paving of the entrance road is expected to greatly contribute to alleviating the inconvenience of tourists' passage," and added, "We will continue to make efforts to resolve usage inconveniences at the county's representative tourist sites."
