The area around Duhyeon Reservoir experienced increased traffic due to the development of the Cheongnyang Yulli Public Housing District, the relocation of the Ulju-gun Office, and the formation of a restaurant district in the center of the reservoir, which caused inconvenience and traffic congestion on the existing narrow roads, leading to complaints from residents.


To resolve these issues, Ulju-gun began detailed design work in 2018 and has invested 9.7 billion KRW in the project up to this month to expand the roads.


The construction section covers a total of 1.4 km of road from Ungchon-ro (former National Road No. 7), passing Duhyeon Reservoir, to Cheongnyangcheonbyeon-ro (County Road No. 18).


The existing road width of 5 to 6 meters was expanded to 9 meters, and 48 parking spaces were installed in the reservoir center, which had been heavily congested.



A county official said, "We thank the local residents for enduring the inconveniences caused by the road construction," and added, "Along with the road expansion, a waterfront park will be created in the future, and with the development of the Yulhyeon District, Duhyeon Reservoir is expected to grow into a vibrant new tourist attraction in Ulju-gun."
