Ulsan City to Reduce City Bus Operations by 5.3% During Vacation Season Due to Passenger Decline
Ulsan City will begin reducing the number of city buses during the summer season.
On the 23rd, Ulsan City announced that it will implement the "2023 Summer Vacation City Bus Reduction" from the 24th to August 17th in preparation for the decrease in city bus passengers during summer vacation and the summer holiday period.
The reduction applies to 45 routes (49 buses), which is 5.3% of the weekday operating buses out of a total of 183 routes (928 buses).
The city selected bus routes operating in areas where the summer population flow significantly decreases. The plan is to flexibly adjust the intervals between buses during peak commuting hours to minimize inconvenience for passengers.
An official from Ulsan City stated, "We expect to improve city bus efficiency and service quality by reducing energy waste caused by running buses without passengers during the vacation period and providing sufficient rest time for drivers."
