Due to the reduction in lane width caused by the construction of Section 13 of Daejeon Urban Railway Line 2, the area where bus-only lane enforcement is suspended will be expanded.

Accordingly, the suspension of bus-only lane enforcement has been extended to include the section from Samsung Sageori to Hyodong Sageori on Daejeon-ro, and from Jung-gu Office Sageori to Daejeon Station Sageori on Jungang-ro.

The suspension period will last until December 31, 2026, and may be extended depending on the progress of the construction. The city explained that this is a temporary measure to ease congestion caused by frequent entry and exit of construction vehicles and the narrowing of road width.

With this measure, the areas where bus-only lane enforcement is suspended now include, in addition to the existing sections-Chunbyeon Expressway from Dangsan Bridge to Sintanjin interchange, Gyejok-ro from Eumnae Sageori to Jungni Sageori, and Gyebaek-ro from Jeongnim Sageori to Doma Sageori-the newly added sections: Daejeon-ro from Samsung Sageori to Hyodong Sageori, and Jungang-ro from Jung-gu Office Sageori to Daejeon Station Sageori. The exclusive lane on Doan-daero (from Yuseong Sageori to Doan Sageori) was abolished as of April 25.

Nam Sideok, Director of Daejeon City's Transportation Bureau, stated, "We are temporarily suspending bus-only lane enforcement to reduce traffic inconvenience caused by the urban railway construction," and added, "Depending on the progress of the construction, the suspension areas and period may be adjusted, so please check the Daejeon City website for detailed information."
