[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] The Hongcheon County Prosperity Association in Gangwon Province is conducting a signature campaign among Hongcheon residents to attract a metropolitan railway.

The association announced on the 22nd, "The 4th National Railway Network Construction Plan (2021?2030) for the Yongmun~Hongcheon railway is expected to be finalized and announced as early as the end of this month, so we have decided to start the 'Great Signature Campaign of Hongcheon Residents' reflecting the wishes of Hongcheon citizens."

The main contents include exemption from the preliminary feasibility study for the prompt completion of railway construction as part of national balanced development, and provisions related to the 'Special Act on Metropolitan Transportation Management' enforcement decree, which restricts the construction of non-capital area metropolitan railway projects within a 40 km radius centered on metropolitan areas.

Lee Gyu-seol, president of the Hongcheon County Prosperity Association, emphasized, "For national balanced development and the future growth of Hongcheon County and Gangwon Province, the national project Yongmun~Hongcheon railway must be promptly started and completed."
