Easier Driving with Proper Lane Guidance for Drivers

This project involved the installation at ten locations, including: at the intersection near 1115-12 Yongwon-dong, where the wide spacing between intersections helps prevent wrong-way driving; at the area near 851-35 Nammun-dong, where the continuous intersection layout helps prevent driver confusion; and in front of 598-5 Idong, where the irregular intersection shape requires clear route guidance. The project was implemented as part of the detailed 'Reducing Traffic Accidents' initiative under the 2025 Traffic Safety Facility Improvement Plan, with a reallocated budget of 85 million won.

According to the Korea Road Traffic Authority on August 8, after the installation of the road surface color guide lines, there was a clear improvement in the clarity of vehicle travel direction. As a result, violations related to lane changes and sudden stops decreased, and the rate of traffic accidents was found to have dropped significantly.

Jung Hyunseop, head of Jinhae District Office, stated, "We hope that the installation of these road surface color guide lines will allow drivers to use the roads more safely and conveniently. Moving forward, we will continue to implement safety measures, always prioritizing the safety of our citizens."
