[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The Daejeon city government has decided to change the construction method of the Yuseong Complex Terminal from a private developer bidding process to a public development project. After four rounds of private developer bidding all failed, the development method was ultimately shifted.

On the 29th, Mayor Heo Tae-jeong of Daejeon held a city administration briefing and confirmed the decision to proceed with the public development of the Yuseong Complex Terminal.

Mayor Heo explained the background of the public development initiative for the Yuseong Complex Terminal, saying, "After reviewing several alternatives, including re-bidding for private developers and public development, we have finalized the public development of the Yuseong Complex Terminal. We previously inquired with multiple private developers regarding their interest in the project, but it was concluded that there was no willingness to participate."

Earlier, at the National Assembly audit held on the 22nd, Mayor Heo hinted at the possibility of changing the project method by stating, "The construction project of the Yuseong Complex Terminal will be undertaken by the Daejeon Urban Corporation."

Following the public development policy for the Yuseong Complex Terminal, the city and the Daejeon Urban Corporation plan to collaborate with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to amend the district unit plan, including easing floor restrictions and expanding permitted uses to improve project conditions.

Additionally, as the Daejeon Urban Corporation takes the lead in constructing the Yuseong Terminal, it is expected to commence related procedures such as the basic architectural planning service and finalize and announce the detailed construction plan for the Yuseong Complex Terminal by the first half of next year.

Mayor Heo emphasized, "Since the project method has been finalized, the city will focus administrative efforts together with the Daejeon Urban Corporation to ensure the Yuseong Complex Terminal construction project can quickly return to normal."

Meanwhile, the city plans to relocate the currently operating Yuseong Intercity Bus Stop to a site within the Yuseong Complex Transfer Center by the first half of next year to reduce traffic congestion in the surrounding area. This measure is in response to the expected construction and completion period of approximately five years for the Yuseong Complex Terminal.

The current Yuseong Intercity Bus Stop is in an old and cramped building, causing significant inconvenience to users and traffic congestion on nearby roads, making improvement urgent.
