Pohang City will implement traffic control over a total of 2.9 km across three sections around the event area from the 26th to the 28th, as the Pohang International Fireworks Festival is held in the Hyeongsan River Sports Park area.
First, on the 27th from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., traffic will be restricted on Unharo (from Songnim Elementary School Intersection to the northern three-way intersection near Unha Hall) for the Pohang Street Parade and performances.
Also, in preparation for the main event on the 27th, from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Hope Avenue (from Hyeongsan Intersection to Unha Hall three-way intersection) and Hyeongsan River North Road (from Hyeongsan Intersection to the southern three-way intersection near the Culture and Arts Center) will be closed to ensure citizens can safely enjoy the festival.
Additionally, traffic restrictions will be applied to vehicles entering residential side streets connected to the fully closed sections.
Since this year’s International Fireworks Festival is being held normally for the first time in four years, the city plans to work closely with related organizations, Pohang Southern Police Station, and traffic volunteer groups to devise traffic measures, making every effort to minimize traffic inconvenience for citizens and tourists.

To this end, a total of 307 personnel, including traffic volunteer groups, police officers, and public officials, will be deployed around the event site and major intersections. Approximately 9,000 temporary parking spaces have been prepared at 13 locations, including Songdo Coastal Road Parking Lot, Songnim Elementary School, Pohang Canal Public Parking, Songdo Middle School, and Jukdo Elementary School.
Furthermore, due to the traffic restrictions, to provide convenience to citizens and tourists visiting the festival, six shuttle buses will operate at 30-minute intervals on three routes connecting temporary parking lots to the event site from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. on the 27th.
O Gi-tae, Director of the Traffic Support Division, said, “As many citizens and tourists are expected to visit the Pohang International Fireworks Festival, we will thoroughly manage traffic control and communication to ensure a successful festival,” and added, “Since traffic congestion is expected during the festival period, we ask visitors to use public transportation when coming to the festival site.”
