The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced on the 24th that it will release the results of the preliminary feasibility study for the private airport planned to be constructed at the Daegu-Gyeongbuk Integrated New Airport on the 25th.
The preliminary feasibility study is a procedure to prepare a rough airport plan, including facility scale and layout according to air traffic demand, at the initial stage of the airport construction project in accordance with the preliminary feasibility study operation guidelines.
Following the enactment of the special law in April and the full-scale promotion of the Integrated New Airport project, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport prepared the plan together with experts from Daegu, Gyeongbuk, and airport specialists.

The air traffic demand (for 60 years) is projected at 12.26 million passengers (9.06 million international) and 218,000 tons of cargo. The facilities reviewed include a passenger terminal of 102,000㎡, a cargo terminal of 10,000㎡, an apron of 296,000㎡, a 3,500m runway, and a reserve site of 226,000㎡ for expansion. The total project cost was estimated at approximately 2.6 trillion KRW.
