The Daejeon Regional Land Management Office will open an additional 6.6-kilometer section (four lanes) of the main road on the Chungcheong Inland Expressway (Section 2) from Hadang-ri, Wonnam-myeon, Eumseong-gun to Daejang-ri, Soi-myeon, Eumseong-gun, starting at 12:00 p.m. on September 29.


With this opening, 29.7 kilometers of the total 44.6-kilometer Chungcheong Inland Expressway (Cheongju to Eumseong) will become operational, which is expected to improve transportation convenience for residents in the central region of North Chungcheong Province.


Taking into account the challenging construction conditions this year, such as record-breaking heat waves and continuous rainfall, an additional 10.7 kilometers up to Manjeong-ri (Sinchon Interchange) in Daesowon-myeon, Chungju, is planned to open in November.


Furthermore, by December, the 4.2-kilometer section from Sinchon Interchange to Geomdan Interchange will be opened, enabling the operation of the 44.6-kilometer Cheongju to Chungju expressway and allowing for the early completion of the Chungcheong Inland Expressway project.



Bang Yunseok, Director of the Daejeon Regional Land Management Office, stated, "We will do our utmost to ensure that the remaining sections are opened without delay by prioritizing safety and quality during construction."
