[Asia Economy Reporter Jo In-kyung] Due to heavy snowfall starting on the evening of the 6th causing congestion on various city roads, Seoul City extended the peak commuting dispatch time by 30 minutes until 9:30 AM on the 7th.


Accordingly, subway operations will increase by 36 trips from 7:00 AM to 9:30 AM compared to usual. City buses will also increase the minimum dispatch intervals on all routes during commuting hours, and routes passing through sections controlled due to frequent icing will be detoured.



Road control information is provided through bus information terminals (BIT) at bus stops and variable message signs (VMS) on roads. It can also be checked on the Seoul Transportation Information Center's TOPIS website and Twitter.
