Daejeon City Announces Bidding for 'Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road Construction'

[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Daejeon City is promoting the construction of the Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road.

On the 25th, the city announced the bid for basic design technical proposals to select a contractor for the ‘Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road Construction Project,’ which will connect Munji-dong in Yuseong-gu and Sindae-dong in Daedeok-gu.

The Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road will be constructed as a 1.3 km long, four-lane road connecting the Munji district in Yuseong-gu and National Road No. 17 in Daedeok-gu, with a total project cost of 104.3 billion KRW.

The city expects that once this road section is built, it will help disperse traffic on National Road No. 17 and improve accessibility to the Daedeok Special Zone by connecting Yuseong-gu and Daedeok-gu, which are currently separated by the Gapcheon River.

Additionally, by linking with the Northeast Connection Road (passing through the Yeonchuk district), the connectivity of the Yeonchuk Urban Development Project area will be strengthened, laying the foundation for balanced development in the northeastern part of Daejeon. It is also expected to have a positive impact on the planned northeastern circular road passing through Birae-dong, Wadong, and Sintanjin.

The city plans to evaluate technical proposals and proceed with detailed design this year, start construction of the Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road next year, and complete it by 2026.

A city official stated, “We will introduce landscape evaluation criteria during the technical proposal assessment to ensure that the Daedeok Special Zone East Access Road is constructed as a landmark bridge representing Daejeon.”
