Suin Line Hakik Station Planned for New Establishment in 2026... DCRi Agrees on Project Cost Burden

Incheon City announced on the 14th that the project to establish Hakik Station on the Suin Line, scheduled for completion in 2026, will be in full swing.

The city signed a consignment and entrustment agreement for the Hakik Station establishment project with the Korea Rail Network Authority, Korail, and DCR Co., Ltd. the day before.

The establishment of Hakik Station is a project promoted as a metropolitan transportation improvement measure following the Yonghyeon-Hakik (Block 1) urban development project, which accommodates a total of 13,000 households and a population of 33,000. It will be located between Songdo Station and Inha University Station on the Suin Line.

In the first phase, the underground 1st and 2nd floor mainline structure construction was completed in 2018, and in the second phase, external entrances, electrical, signaling, communication, facility works, and architectural finishing works remain.

Although delayed due to disagreements over the cost burden, DCR, the urban development project implementer, agreed to bear the project cost of 49.1 billion KRW and compensate for an annual operating loss of about 450 million KRW due to the operation of Hakik Station.

Additionally, the Korea Rail Network Authority and Korail will be responsible for project implementation and operation, and Incheon City will provide administrative support to ensure the smooth construction of Hakik Station.

Hakik Station is scheduled to undergo basic and detailed design in the second half of this year, start construction next year, and be completed in 2026.
