[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] On the 22nd, Heo Seong-mu, mayor of Changwon City, Gyeongnam, visited the National Assembly to propose the development project of Gusan Marine Tourism Complex and other matters.

On that day, Mayor Heo met with Kim Gyoheung, Song Seokjun, Heo Young, and Park Youngsoon, members of the Land, Infrastructure and Transport Committee at the National Assembly.

First, he emphasized the public interest and urgency of the Gusan Marine Tourism Complex development project and requested cooperation for the Central Land Expropriation Committee's approval of the project recognition.

This project involves the development of a family resort comprehensive tourism complex on a 2,842,634㎡ site in Gubok-ri and Sim-ri, Gusan-myeon, with a total project cost of 421.8 billion KRW.

At the entrance of Jeodo Yeonryukgyo Bridge, a 160,000㎡ corporate training district will be established, and a 280,000㎡ health resort accommodation district will be located at the southernmost part of Jeodo. Additionally, a 370,000㎡ children's theme park linked with Robot Land, forest experience facilities, and a zipline are planned.

He also raised his voice to propose the improvement of the entrance and exit road alignment of Seomasan IC.

Seomasan IC, opened in 1973, has long been exposed to traffic accident risks due to the at-grade intersection operation of the connecting road and the staggered entrance and exit points.

In particular, there was one fatality each in 2017 and 2018, highlighting the urgent need for improvement of the entrance and exit road alignment.

In response, Representative Song agreed on the dangers of Seomasan IC and promised continuous interest and cooperation.

Meanwhile, Mayor Heo additionally requested active support for the new national railway line between Changwon and Daegu in the 4th National Railway Network Construction Plan.
