Partial Traffic Restrictions on Bicycle Paths and Walkways in Gapcheon, Daejeon

Daejeon City has decided to restrict passage on bicycle paths and walking trails installed on some sections of the Gapcheon riverside area.

On the 18th, Daejeon City announced that from the 20th of this month until September 30, 2028, passage will be restricted on a 7.5 km section of bicycle paths and walking trails from Wonchon Bridge to Singoo Bridge (towards Daedeok-gu, right bank of Gapcheon).

The passage restriction is due to the installation of a collector sewer line as part of the modernization project for the relocation of the sewage treatment plant, and it was decided to prevent safety accidents among citizens.

The restriction method involves blocking the entrances and exits of bicycle paths and walking trails adjacent to the construction area with safety facilities.

However, detour passage is possible on the bicycle paths and walking trails on the left bank of Gapcheon (towards Jeonmin-dong Expo Apartments).

Daejeon City has promoted the passage restriction plan by installing banners nearby and distributing notices to related organizations and groups to minimize citizen inconvenience caused by the restriction.

After the construction is completed, sections where passage is possible will be gradually opened before the entire project is completed, in consultation with Daejeon Enviro Co., Ltd., the project implementer.

Jung Haegyo, Director of the Environmental Greenery Bureau of Daejeon City, said, “The restriction of passage on the Gapcheon section bicycle paths and walking trails is a measure to prevent safety accidents for citizens and bicycle users,” and added, “We ask for citizens’ understanding and cooperation.”
