Sejong 'Sicheong~Goun-dong' Inner Loop Auxiliary BRT Pilot Operation

[Asia Economy (Sejong) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Sejong City is conducting a pilot operation of the internal circulation auxiliary BRT (B5) running between Sejong City Hall and Goun-dong.

According to the city on the 4th, the internal circulation auxiliary BRT will operate from the 5th on weekdays between 6:05 AM and 10:55 AM. The daily number of trips is 15 each in the direction of Goun-dong and City Hall.

The interval between buses is about 20 minutes, but when the schedule overlaps with the Gu900 bus, it will be adjusted to 5-minute intervals to enhance convenience for bus users.

Going forward, after conducting a six-month pilot operation, the city plans to improve facilities at points where resident inconvenience is expected.

Also, if the demand analysis from the pilot operation shows that the internal circulation auxiliary BRT has contributed to improving citizens' convenience, it will be established as a regular route.

Lee Sang-ok, head of the city’s Transportation Division, said, “We expect that the operation of the internal circulation auxiliary BRT will improve transportation convenience for residents in areas where BRT usage was difficult due to accessibility issues,” and added, “We hope many citizens use the service and comply with quarantine guidelines.”
