Mokpo City in South Jeolla Province will implement adjustments to its public bus routes starting with the first bus on November 3.


The city announced that, through these route adjustments, it aims to both improve operational efficiency for routes connecting Muan and Yeongam and enhance transportation convenience based on interregional cooperation and mutual growth.


The main changes include: ▲ extending Route 2 to cover more of the Oryong 2 District; ▲ supplementing the school commute function for Route 2-2 within the downtown area; ▲ expanding Route 300 to cover the Mokpo~Goha Island~Samho-eup section via Mokpo Bridge; and ▲ strengthening access to Peace Square using Routes 210 and 300.


In particular, Route 300 will be adjusted to pass through Mokpo Bridge, just like Route 900, and the number of daily operations will increase from 9 to 20. Additionally, Route 210 will be improved to detour via Baeknyeon-daero between Mokpo Station and the bus terminal, passing through Peace Square and the Mokpo National University campus.


A city official stated, "These route adjustments are measures to enhance route efficiency through intergovernmental cooperation and improve transportation convenience for citizens," adding, "We will continue to improve public bus operations despite challenging budget conditions."



Meanwhile, the names of some bus stops will be changed, and the new route map will be updated. Detailed information on the changes can be found on the Mokpo City website and at the Transportation Information Center.
