Conditions for Vehicle Traffic at Osan Doksanseong to Improve

Osan-si Secures 560 Million KRW for Doksanseong Mountain Gate Reconstruction Project
Rebuilding with Gate Pillar Width Expanded from 2.9m to 5.5m

The vehicle traffic conditions for visitors to Doksanseong Sema Site in Osan-si, Gyeonggi-do, a nationally designated cultural heritage, are expected to improve.

Osan City announced on the 24th that it has recently secured a budget of 560 million KRW for the reconstruction of the mountain gate installed at the entrance of Doksanseong Sema Site.

The mountain gate at the entrance of the Sema Site, installed in 2003, has a narrow passage width of 2.94m between the lower granite stones, causing difficulties for vehicle traffic and making it hard for fire trucks to enter, which has raised ongoing concerns about vulnerability to fires.

In particular, Mayor Lee Gwon-jae of Osan actively explained the issue of the Doksanseong mountain gate during the visit of the People Power Party delegation from the Gyeonggi Provincial Council in March and requested the inclusion of a budget for the gate reconstruction.

The mayor said, "Reconstructing the mountain gate will ensure convenience of movement for tourists and visitors to Doksanseong and help minimize damage from disasters such as fires."

The mayor plans to continue making every effort to secure a budget for the Seorang Reservoir trail project, taking this opportunity to reorganize the entrance road to Doksanseong. He emphasized, "We will enhance the value of Doksanseong and the Sema Site, nationally designated cultural heritage representing the Three Kingdoms period, by linking them with the Seorang Reservoir trail to make Osan a representative place for historical learning."
