[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam will partially restrict traffic on Samho-ro from Seokjeon Underpass to Seomasan IC from the 23rd to the 24th, between 00:00 and 05:00, for two days, due to the installation of the upper part of the steel bridge as part of the Seokjeon-dong pedestrian environment improvement project involving the relocation of the Seokjeon-dong overpass and the construction of a pedestrian bridge.

The road restriction is planned to be implemented during the early morning hours when train operations are halted and traffic volume is low, following consultations with the railway corporation and the police station to minimize inconvenience to citizens and prevent safety accidents. Although pedestrian and vehicle traffic is minimal during this time, thorough preparations are being made to guard against any potential safety risks.

Once the pedestrian bridge is installed, it is expected to greatly contribute to preventing safety accidents by ensuring convenient pedestrian access for Seokjeon-dong residents as well as a safe route to and from school for students of Bukseong Elementary School.

Lee Sang-in, Director of the Construction and Road Division, stated, “While traffic restrictions due to the installation of the steel bridge upper part are unavoidable and may cause some inconvenience over the two days, we ask for the understanding and cooperation of citizens for the safe commute of children. We will do our best to minimize inconvenience and prevent safety accidents.”
