Gwangju City Issues Service Contract for Construction of Multipurpose Gymnasium at Advanced Sports Park

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] Gwangju Metropolitan City announced on the 6th that it issued a service order last month to establish the basic plan, the first step of the project, to build a multipurpose gymnasium in the Advanced Sports Park by 2023.

The multipurpose gymnasium in the Advanced Sports Park plans to invest a total project cost of 5 billion KRW to build basic facilities such as badminton and basketball courts, along with auxiliary facilities including a community center and other convenience facilities for residents.

Once the multipurpose gymnasium is built within the Advanced Sports Park, citizens are expected to enjoy sports activities anytime indoors regardless of weather conditions, as well as outdoor sports.

This year, the city will establish the basic plan for the gymnasium construction, and after going through the national funding application process, it plans to actively proceed with the gymnasium construction from next year, including design competitions.

The Advanced Sports Park, where the multipurpose gymnasium will be located, is a place newly renovated and operated this year to promote the health and leisure activities of local residents such as industrial complex workers, children, youth, and the elderly by expanding and improving the facilities of the existing aging sports park.

It features a multipurpose field where various sports such as baseball, futsal, soccer, and jokgu can be played together, as well as a park golf course for the leisure activities of the elderly.

Additionally, there are well-equipped resting spaces available for all generations including children, such as forest walking trails, rest areas, and playgrounds.

Shin Dong-ha, Director of the Sports Promotion Division of the city, said, “We will do our best to promote the project so that the sports park can be conveniently used by anyone, including industrial complex workers and children, centered around the local living area.”
