At the meeting chaired by Deputy Mayor Kang Hyun-do, reports were presented on smart intersections, emergency vehicle priority signals, the next-generation intelligent transportation system (C-ITS) construction plan, as well as geometric structure and signal improvement plans for major arterial roads such as Munshi-ro, Seongho-daero, Wondong-ro, and Nambu-daero, based on the traffic status survey and condition analysis results.


Previously, Osan City selected 16 services across 4 sectors aiming to realize 'Osan, a smart transportation city centered on citizen safety' through the establishment of a smart traffic management system. Additionally, in the traffic system improvement (TSM) sector, improvement plans for traffic flow, geometric structure, pedestrian safety, and guidance systems were derived for 56 intersections across 10 major arterial road sections.


The city plans to hold a final report meeting in December this year, reflecting opinions from related departments and institutions.



Deputy Mayor Kang urged, "It is necessary to efficiently introduce the intelligent transportation system in stages, and I hope everyone will do their best to resolve congestion in response to traffic changes in Osan City, such as the settlement of Segyo 2 District."
