[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Busan Port Authority (BPA) will conduct crackdowns starting from the 11th in cooperation with Jinhae Police Station to resolve illegal parking and stopping within Busan Port New Port.

The Imhang Road and the hinterland complex roads in Busan Port New Port are important logistics networks connecting the terminal handling 15.5 million TEU of containers annually and the hinterland complex handling 1.9 million TEU.

However, illegal parking and stopping vehicles not only disrupt logistics activities but also threaten the safety of port users.

As the managing agency of Imhang Road and the hinterland complex roads, BPA has been conducting guidance activities targeting vehicles obstructing traffic, but it lacks the authority to crack down on illegal parking and forcibly move vehicles, which poses limitations.

Jinhae Police Station has decided to carry out strong crackdowns on Imhang Road and the hinterland complex roads within its jurisdiction to reduce the risk of traffic accidents and ensure user safety. Traffic control and guidance activities will also be conducted simultaneously.

BPA has installed banners within the managed roads to announce the implementation of parking and stopping crackdowns in order to actively cooperate with the enforcement.

To address the causes of illegal parking and stopping, an additional truck rest area with 790 spaces will be created and supplied in Nammun-dong, Jinhae-gu, Changwon City by the end of this year.

Following the existing North 'Con' and South 'Con' truck rest areas, BPA has also been operating the Ungdong temporary truck parking lot with 891 spaces since January of this year.
