[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The Suyeong River Crossing Road in Busan will open on December 31.

The Busan City Construction Headquarters announced on the 29th that the operation of the Suyeong River Crossing Road, connecting Suyeonggangbyeon-daero and Sam-eo-ro, will begin from midnight on the 31st.

The newly established road is a 376m-long (228m bridge) two-way 2 to 3-lane road connecting Suyeonggangbyeon-daero (Banyeo 1-dong) in Haeundae-gu and Sam-eo-ro (Banyeo 4-dong).

The construction plan was established in 2014, and from 2015 to 2017, feasibility evaluations, basic plan procurement services, and basic and detailed design services were conducted. Construction began in January 2018. The total project cost is 17.9 billion KRW, fully funded by the city.

With the road opening, traffic inconveniences for residents in Banyeo-dong, Allak-dong, and Geumsa-dong, who had restricted vehicle access due to flooding of the Suyeong River crossing ferry bridge during rainy weather, are expected to be resolved.

Kim Hyung-chan, head of the Busan City Construction Headquarters, said, “Currently, the headquarters is carrying out a total of 13 road construction projects,” and added, “We will continue to make efforts for balanced regional development by expanding the road network and improving the traffic system.”
