Imsil-gun Accelerates Development Project of Bonghwang Ecological Park

[Imsil=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Nosik] Imsil-gun, Jeonbuk, is accelerating the development project of Bonghwangsan Ecological Park surrounding the Imsil-eup area.

The county announced on the 25th that all administrative procedures and designs, including environmental impact assessment and implementation plan approval for the Bonghwang Ecological Park development project, have been completed, and construction will begin in earnest from next month.

County Governor Sim Min thoroughly inspected the design details along with the preparatory status for smooth project promotion and urged thorough administrative preparation to ensure the project proceeds according to schedule.

The county plans to review the design details to ensure that the realistic opinions of local residents and stakeholders are properly reflected and to develop Bonghwangsan into an ecological park that will soon return to the embrace of all residents.

The Bonghwang Ecological Park development project will invest a total of 5.8 billion KRW, including 2.9 billion KRW from provincial funds, aiming for completion by the end of next year.

Previously, the county secured project funds by being the only one in the province selected last year for the ‘Natural Environment Conservation and Utilization Facility Project.’

This project aims to connect the damaged ecological axis of Bonghwangsan and secure biodiversity while creating an ecological space where nature and humans can coexist.

By maintaining hiking trail routes and improving hazardous areas throughout Bonghwangsan in Imsil-eup, an ecological exploration trail will be created, and by utilizing the characteristics of major hub areas, spaces for residents’ rest, leisure, and ecological experiences, as well as forest playgrounds and resting areas where infants and youth can be with nature, will be established.

The county plans to complete the necessary administrative procedures for project promotion and create a park that approaches residents as an eco-friendly complex space where ecological and cultural experiences and healing are possible.

Upon completion, it is expected that the beautiful scenery and excellent ecological resources of Bonghwangsan, along with the ecological experience space, will be reborn as a beloved space for residents and visitors.

Governor Sim Min said, “We will actively collect local residents’ opinions to ensure Bonghwangsan naturally harmonizes with residents’ lives and promote the project accordingly,” adding, “Since residents’ interest and expectations are high, we will focus administrative power to ensure the project proceeds smoothly as planned.”
