[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Dong-guk] Ulsan City is implementing a 'Chuseok Holiday Special Traffic Measures' in preparation for the increased traffic demand during the Chuseok holiday period.


The main measures include operating a traffic control center to manage traffic conditions, provide traffic information, and prepare for various emergency situations.


Five bus routes (127, 307, 401, 527, 1713) connecting the intercity bus terminal and Taehwagang Station will extend their last bus service (to 11:20 PM, 11:30 PM, 11:35 PM) from September 9 to 12 for four days.


On Chuseok day, five limousine bus routes (5001 to 5005) serving KTX Ulsan Station will extend their operation until late night (departures at 00:30 and 00:55).


To relieve parking concerns for citizens preparing for the Chuseok holiday, temporary parking and stopping will be allowed for up to two hours in nine sections around eight traditional markets from September 3 to 12, for ten days.


Transportation companies will conduct special training on safe driving and courteous service for drivers, enforce overweight vehicle control on major routes, and organize road maintenance and emergency recovery teams for operation.


Due to the ongoing COVID-19 resurgence, disinfection measures such as regular ventilation, disinfection, and mandatory mask-wearing will be established and implemented for public transportation such as city buses and taxis, as well as multi-use facilities like stations and terminals.


Traffic conditions and bus route information can be checked through the Ulsan Traffic Management Center website, Bus Information Terminals (BIT), Variable Message Signs (VMS), and the Ulsan Bus Information app.



A city official stated, “We will do our best to ensure smooth traffic flow and safety management so that visitors to Ulsan can have a safe and comfortable holiday.”
