The newly constructed parking lot utilizes railway land near Bubal Station and offers a total of 272 spaces. As a result, the total number of public parking spaces in the Bubal Station area has increased to 472, including the existing 200 spaces.


Bubal Station serves as a transfer station for both the Gyeonggang Line and the KTX Jungbunaeryuk Line. The city expects that the addition of this parking lot will greatly improve parking convenience for both commuters and travelers.


In addition to the temporary public parking lot at Bubal Station, Icheon City has been continuously expanding major public parking facilities. On July 15, the city collaborated with the private sector to provide a public open parking lot with 90 spaces in the commercial area of Majang-myeon. In Changjeon-dong, the city is also working with Icheon Nonghyup to operate a temporary public parking lot with 73 spaces on the site of the demolished Nonghyup Hanaro Mart, starting in September.



An Icheon City official stated, "We will continue to expand various parking infrastructure to enhance the convenience of daily life for our citizens."
