Establishment of a Special Planning Zone around Sajeong Station on Line 7

Special Planning Zone and Public Contribution Plan for Sites Adjacent to Myeonmok-ro to Promote Transit-Oriented Integrated Development and Activate Pedestrian Axis

A special planning zone will be established around Saja-jeong Station on Line 7 to encourage integrated development of the station area.

On the 11th, the Seoul Metropolitan Government announced that the 10th Urban and Architectural Joint Committee approved the amendment of the 'Myeonmok District Center District Unit Plan'.

The area around Saja-jeong Station (covering 125,000㎡) is a transportation hub connected to Cheongnyangni and Wangsimni to the west via Saja-jeong-ro, and to the east is close to Yongma Tunnel, linking it to the eastern Gyeonggi region.

This district unit plan amendment reflects the development status and changes in conditions of the surrounding and target areas since the 2016 district unit plan announcement, reorganizing the district unit plan accordingly.

To promote integrated development of the station area and activate major pedestrian axes, the area around Saja-jeong Station will be newly designated as a special planning zone and a special planning possible zone.

Two special planning possible zones on the south side of Saja-jeong-ro are planned so that, upon future development, part of the site adjacent to Myeonmok-ro will be contributed as a road for public use. This is expected to help alleviate traffic conditions on Myeonmok-ro (12m wide), a section prone to frequent congestion.

A Seoul city official stated, "Through the decision (amendment) of the Myeonmok District Center District Unit Plan, active regional development will be encouraged, and it is expected to serve as an opportunity to revitalize the station area."
