This project, with a total investment of approximately 280 million won, is designed to alleviate citizen inconvenience caused by outdated facilities. The city plans to newly install or replace 24 bus stops and introduce 14 temperature-controlled benches to provide a more pleasant waiting space.

The newly installed bus stops are designed to ensure safety even during severe weather conditions such as heavy rain and strong winds. In particular, the temperature-controlled benches offer cooling in the summer and heating in the winter, allowing citizens waiting for buses to rest comfortably, protected from heat and cold. This is expected to significantly increase citizen satisfaction.

A city official stated, "The replacement of aging bus stops and installation of temperature-controlled benches is a practical project that directly enhances the quality of life for our citizens. We will continue to expand transportation convenience facilities to create a safer and more convenient public transportation environment in the future."
