Changwon Special City in Gyeongnam announced on November 26 that it has established the "Changwon City Bus Real-time Traffic Information System," which provides both real-time traffic information and practical, everyday information for citizens.

Through this new system, which replaces the traditional paper route maps with digital electronic route maps, the city now instantly provides information such as real-time traffic congestion sections, transfer details, and unexpected accident reports.

Additionally, the system displays content closely related to citizens' daily lives, including weather updates, news, city announcements, and disaster information.

Lee Jonggeun, Director of the Transportation and Construction Bureau, stated, "We will be able to provide citizens with more convenient and prompt traffic information, thereby improving the ease of using public transportation." He added, "We will continue to actively incorporate the latest information technology to steadily pursue transportation innovation policies."
