Hwaseong City announced on the 20th that the construction of the parking towers at Dongtan Lake Park and Byeongjeom Complex Town, scheduled for completion in June, is progressing smoothly.

The Dongtan Lake Park and Byeongjeom Complex Town parking towers are being built with a total investment of 70.2 billion KRW, including 66.4 billion KRW from the city budget and 3.8 billion KRW from national and provincial funds, since 2019 to alleviate the parking shortage in the Dongtan and Byeongjeom areas. This is the largest parking tower project funded solely by the city’s own budget.

The Dongtan Lake Park parking tower is being constructed at Songdong 724-1 and 724-2, with two basement levels and four above-ground floors, providing 321 parking spaces. The Byeongjeom Complex Town parking tower is being built at Jinan-dong 946-6, with four above-ground floors and 313 parking spaces. Both areas have seen a rapid increase in foot traffic due to urban development, resulting in continuously growing parking demand.

Jung Myung-geun, Mayor of Hwaseong City, said, "The supply of parking lots is expected to not only establish a transportation transfer system but also revitalize the nearby commercial districts. We will make further efforts to create a pleasant parking environment for our citizens."
