The Seoul-Gyeonggi Regional Headquarters of the Korea Expressway Corporation announced on October 14 that, due to construction of the Second Capital Region Ring Expressway between Yangpyeong and Icheon, both directions of the Second Jungbu Expressway near Gonjiam (from 333.7 km to 333.9 km) will be completely closed temporarily on three occasions, each for 10 minutes, between 10:00 a.m. and 3:40 p.m. on October 15.

This closure is an unavoidable measure to safely carry out the installation of steel girders for the 'Jinwoo Junction No. 2 Bridge.' During the construction period, all vehicle traffic in the affected section will be restricted.

To minimize inconvenience, the Korea Expressway Corporation is urging drivers to use the Jungbu Expressway (between Hobeop and Hanam) as a detour. The corporation also plans to promptly inform users about the closure and detour routes through various channels, including variable message signs (VMS), TBS traffic radio announcements, navigation app notifications on Naver, Kakao, and T Map, as well as banners at rest areas and junctions.

A representative from the Korea Expressway Corporation stated, "This is an unavoidable measure to ensure the safety of expressway users," and requested, "We ask drivers to avoid traveling during the closure times or to use the detour routes, even if this may cause some inconvenience."
