[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Yeoju City in Gyeonggi Province will operate a T/F team necessary for the extension of the 'Metropolitan Area Express Railway (GTX-A)' to Yeoju starting from the 12th.

On the 11th, Yeoju City stated, "If the excavation work for the connection section at Suseo Station, part of the Samsung~Dongtan section of the GTX-A line, begins in September, it is practically judged that the GTX-A connection to Yeoju will be canceled."

The 'GTX Yeoju Attraction T/F Team' plans to respond to the 'Connection Section Installation Pan-Citizen Movement' to achieve the installation of the connection section at Suseo Station, the first gateway for the GTX-A extension to Yeoju, and plans to expand into an integrated T/F team with four neighboring cities (Gwangju, Icheon, Yeoju, Wonju).

Currently, the four cities are jointly promoting the extension of the GTX-A line to the Gyeonggang Line, and on the 23rd of last month, the mayors of Yeoju, Gwangju, and Icheon met with Minister Noh Hyung-wook of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport to express their intention to jointly bear approximately 21.2 billion KRW in construction costs for the connection section installation.

The 'GTX Yeoju Attraction T/F Team' plans to promote cooperation with the National Assembly and central government agencies, support citizen activities, and collaborate among the four cities for joint responses.
