Mokpo City Revises City Bus Routes to 'Listen to Citizens' Voices'

Broad and Diverse Citizen Opinions Gathered... To Be Reflected in the Deliberation Committee as Well

Mokpo City has opened an ‘Online Citizen Opinion Collection Window’ on the city’s website to hear various voices from citizens regarding the proposed revision of city bus routes.

According to the city on the 26th, in order to seek a rational operation plan for city buses, a route revision proposal was prepared, and regional resident briefing sessions were held. As an additional follow-up measure, the online citizen opinion collection window was established.

The city bus route revision was prepared in two plans? a full revision plan and a partial revision plan? to address issues such as long-distance and long-duration routes, low operational efficiency, and low profitability, through analysis of transportation card and civil complaint data, on-site inspection of current routes, and meetings with related parties.

The full revision plan consists of 14 routes focusing on setting a route structure suitable for the city and streamlining route forms, while the partial revision plan consists of 12 routes by adjusting the curvature and inefficient sections of existing routes.

Accordingly, Mokpo City posted the overview, features, and detailed route maps of the ongoing city bus route revision proposal on the city website and opened an online window where citizens can express their opinions, aiming to collect a wider range of citizen feedback.

A city official said, “We will carefully review and supplement the valuable opinions of citizens regarding the city bus route revision to prepare the optimal city bus route revision plan.”

The ‘Online Citizen Opinion Collection Window’ for the city bus route revision can be accessed by clicking the banner on the Mokpo City Hall website or through the Life & Welfare ? Automobile/Transportation ? City Bus tab at the top of the homepage, where citizens can freely express their opinions after real-name authentication.

In addition, citizens who have difficulty using the internet, such as the elderly, can visit the city’s Transportation Administration Division or each district administrative welfare center to submit their opinions on the route revision.
