The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Ministry of National Defense announced on the 8th that the Cabinet resolved the enforcement decree for the "Special Act on the Construction of Daegu-Gyeongbuk Integrated New Airport" (Special Act).


The enforcement decree will take effect from the 26th, along with the Special Act and enforcement rules, after receiving approval from President Yoon Seok-yeol.


The Daegu-Gyeongbuk Integrated New Airport will be constructed by integrating and relocating the military airport and civilian airport currently located in Dong-gu, Daegu Metropolitan City. The goal is to begin construction in 2025 and open as a civilian-military combined airport in 2030.


Earlier, the government prepared subordinate legislation on matters delegated by the law following the enactment of the Special Act on April 25. Subsequently, after legislative notice for collecting opinions from local residents, related agencies, and local governments, as well as meetings of vice ministers, the subordinate legislation enactment process was completed in just over three months.



The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport stated, "Together with the Ministry of National Defense, Daegu City, Gyeongsangbuk-do, and other related agencies, we plan to actively cooperate as a 'one team' to ensure the timely opening of the Daegu-Gyeongbuk New Airport through the enactment of this subordinate legislation."
