This project aims to widen the narrow river width and improve the low embankment height from Hyanggyori to Gugori in Cheongung-myeon, preventing disasters caused by river flooding. For the safe passage of residents, seven old bridges that hinder water flow will be demolished and reconstructed.

County Governor Sim Min said, "Through this project, we expect not only to protect the lives and property rights of county residents from disasters such as flooding of houses and farmland during the rainy season, but also to contribute to revitalizing the local economy."
