[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Jinju City, Gyeongnam announced that it completed the renovation work of the Gangnam Village entrance intersection, which was formed in a distorted structure, on the 2nd.

The Gangnam Village entrance intersection is located near Gangju Pond, a place frequently visited by people enjoying leisure activities.

However, the intersection was structured so that vehicles turning left (Gangnam Village), going straight (Yeha Intersection), and turning right (Jeongchon Township Office) all waited simultaneously in a single lane, causing frequent traffic congestion.

To improve this inconvenience, the city invested 54 million KRW starting in March to secure a right-turn lane (L=70m, B=3.25m) by utilizing the existing sidewalk area, completing the project on the 2nd, which has received great approval from citizens passing through this area.

A city official stated, “We will do our best to prioritize improving areas with significant traffic inconvenience in daily life, in conjunction with the road traffic plan linked to the opening of the Southern Inland High-Speed Railway.”
