[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] The construction of a bypass road circumventing Munsu-ro, which suffers from chronic traffic congestion, is set to be actively pursued.


Ulsan City announced that on the 29th at 10 a.m., a final report meeting for the 'Feasibility Study on the Munsu-ro Bypass Road' will be held in the mayor's office on the 7th floor of the main building, attended by Mayor Kim Doo-gyeom and six others.


Ulsan City plans to incorporate the discussions from this report meeting into the upcoming national road plan.


An Ulsan City official stated, "Once the Munsu-ro bypass road is established, vehicle movement will be more convenient from Ulsan Park Cemetery Intersection to Bongwol-ro and Taehwa-ro Rotary without passing through Gongyeongtap, greatly improving traffic and residential conditions around Munsu-ro. We will closely cooperate with the central government and local political circles to ensure its inclusion in the national road plan."


The Munsu-ro bypass road project is being promoted to alleviate traffic congestion on Munsu-ro caused by the increase in vehicles due to large-scale apartment complexes and various development projects concentrated around Munsu-ro.


The basic plan for the Munsu-ro bypass road route connects from Ulsan Park Cemetery Intersection, passing north of Sinjeong Middle School, to Eunwol-ro. It also includes the construction of a road linking Eunwol-ro and Namsan-ro to shorten travel time from Ok-dong to Taehwagang National Garden.



The feasibility study estimates the project cost at 87.4 billion KRW, with approximately 58,000 vehicles using Munsu-ro. The diverted traffic volume upon opening the bypass road is estimated at 15,000 vehicles.
