The expansion area at Gamcheon Port Terminal 3 was developed to transfer the general cargo handling function of the North Port to Gamcheon Port. The project includes a storage yard covering a total area of 28,600 square meters and a quay with three berths. Busan Port Authority has completed all operational procedures, including designating the storage yard as a bonded area, and will officially open the expanded area as a public terminal.

Busan Port Authority plans to minimize inconvenience for users by inspecting and improving convenience facilities such as lounges and restrooms for port workers and visitors to ensure smooth terminal operations. In addition, the authority will strengthen safety inspections of the facilities and enhance operational efficiency to create a safer port environment.

Song Sangkeun, President of Busan Port Authority, stated, "This expansion project will play a significant role in strengthening Busan Port's general cargo handling capabilities," adding, "We will continue to expand port infrastructure to contribute to revitalizing the regional economy and enhancing the nation's logistics competitiveness."
