The intersection in front of Hupo Terminal serves as a gateway to and from the Hupo-myeon town area. Due to the terminal's proximity, there is heavy traffic from large vehicles and congestion caused by pedestrians, increasing the risk of traffic accidents and necessitating facility improvements.

The newly installed roundabout offers shorter delay times compared to signalized intersections, facilitating smoother vehicle flow. It also reduces entry speeds, which lowers both the number and severity of traffic accidents. Considering the high volume of large vehicles such as buses, a single-lane large roundabout was installed to suit the site conditions.

Park Nam-ho, Director of Urban Saemaeul Division, expressed, “We thank the residents for their cooperation. The previously congested intersection in front of Hupo Terminal can now provide safety and convenience for both vehicles and pedestrians thanks to the roundabout installation.” He added, “Furthermore, we will offer a pleasant road environment to athletes, officials, and tourists visiting Uljin-gun for the Provincial Sports Festival.”
