Haman-gun, Chilwon Samgeori Roundabout Established

A roundabout has been completed at Chilwon Samgeori in Haman-gun, Gyeongnam.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Trainee Reporter Lee Seryeong] The construction of a roundabout at Chilwon Samgeori in front of Chilwon LH Apartments in Haman-gun, Gyeongnam, has been completed.

Chilwon Samgeori is the point where the four-lane County Road No. 13 and the urban planning road toward Chilwon city area intersect in a Y-shape. The signal waiting time was long, and there were many high-speed vehicles, making the risk of traffic accidents high.

The county started the project in May this year after consultations with related organizations such as the police station and the Korea Road Traffic Authority to prepare improvement measures, and completed it this month, investing a total project cost of 670 million KRW.

The traffic flow of vehicles entering from National Road No. 5 toward Chilseo and Daesan and vehicles entering the city area such as LH Apartments is expected to become smoother.

The roundabout operates by circulating counterclockwise around the traffic island installed in the center. Vehicles in the roundabout have priority over entering vehicles, so it is necessary to reduce speed and yield when entering the intersection.

A county official said, “We hope that people will follow the traffic rules, reduce speed sufficiently, and use it safely.”
