[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] Namhae-gun, Gyeongnam Province, will newly reorganize the rural bus routes by adding 2 new public buses starting from the 24th.

The main reorganization details include ▲ Establishment of a new route from Samdong Naesan and Bonghwa areas to Jijok (4 times daily) ▲ Extension of the route from Seolcheon Yonggang to Seolcheon Deoksin and Wolgok (3 times daily) ▲ Increase in routes from Namhae-eup to Samdong Jijok and Eunjum Mijo areas (2 times daily) ▲ Extension and increase of routes from Namhae-eup to Changseon Gain and Jangpo (2 times daily) ▲ Increase in routes from Namhae-eup to Gohyeon Galhwa, Seomyeon Junghyeon, and Gohyeon Daegok areas (1 time daily) ▲ Increase in routes from Namhae-eup to Seomyeon Seosang, Nam-myeon Deogwol, Nam-gu, and Buk-gu (1 time daily).

This full implementation will begin on the 24th, reflecting the accumulated bus route complaints since the COVID-19 pandemic.

With this reorganization, residents in the Samdong Naesan and Bonghwa areas will be able to travel to Samdong Jijok from Dongcheon without transfers, and the route that previously ended at Seolcheon Yonggang will be extended to Deoksin and Wolgok, making it much easier for residents there to access the Seolcheon-myeon Administrative Welfare Center.

Additionally, the route frequency will be increased so that residents in the Mijo area can transfer more easily at Samdong Jijok to go to Samcheonpo, and the Changseon Gain and Jangpo routes will be extended and increased to improve accessibility for Changseon residents traveling to Namhae-eup.

Furthermore, new routes operating during rush hours have been established for Gohyeon Galhwa, Seomyeon Hoeryong, and Gohyeon Daegok, and morning routes from Namhae-eup to Seomyeon Seosang, Nam-myeon Deogwol, Nam-gu, and Buk-gu have been increased, significantly reflecting the residents' demands for mobility rights after COVID-19.

A county official stated, “With this bus route reorganization in Namhae-gun, it is expected that seniors will find it much easier to use public transportation for their travel,” and added, “We will continue to establish public transportation improvement measures reflecting residents' opinions.”
