On the 8th, Vice President Lim visited the ongoing construction sites of the Honam High-Speed Railway Phase 2 (Gomakwon~Mokpo) and the Boseong~Imseong-ri railway construction projects, stating, "To prevent complaints arising from the new railway construction, please closely coordinate with related organizations, and since Muan Airport Station involves a deep underground and ultra-long tunnel, ensure thorough construction to improve safety by addressing disaster prevention and ventilation facilities without any issues."


He continued, "These projects are long-awaited by the residents of the Honam region, so please actively strive to proceed with the construction based on high-quality and accident-free railway construction."



Meanwhile, one project currently underway in the Honam area, including the Honam High-Speed Railway Phase 2 construction, aims to create growth momentum for the Honam region by establishing a 44.6km high-speed railway between Naju and Mokpo and an 82.5km conventional railway between Boseong and Imseong-ri, with construction actively progressing.
