This project involves the construction of a four-lane expressway spanning a total length of 4.14 kilometers, running from Gamjeong-dong to Masan-dong in Gimpo-si, Gyeonggi Province. Dongbu Corporation will serve as the lead contractor with a 70% stake. The total contract amount is 154.8 billion won, and the construction period is approximately 84 months from the commencement date.

The Gyeyang–Ganghwa Expressway is a national arterial road project connecting Gyeyang-gu in Incheon through Gimpo to Ganghwa. It is a core infrastructure initiative aimed at improving transportation accessibility and strengthening the metropolitan transportation system in the northwestern area of the Seoul metropolitan region. Once opened, the expressway is expected to effectively disperse traffic demand in large-scale development areas such as Geomdan New City and Gimpo Hangang New City, while also forming a new metropolitan transportation axis linking Ganghwa, Gimpo, and Gyeyang.

Section 3 is a major segment within the Gimpo area, comprising a complex construction scope that includes both the main expressway and bridges. Leveraging its extensive experience in public civil engineering and road construction, Dongbu Corporation plans to focus on stable project management and ensuring high quality throughout the process.

Recently, Dongbu Corporation has been strengthening its competitiveness in the road and transportation infrastructure sector by winning contracts such as Section 1 of the Busan New Port–Gimhae Expressway construction, and the underpass construction on Hwarang-ro in the Goyang Changneung public housing district.

A representative from Dongbu Corporation stated, "The construction of the Gyeyang–Ganghwa Expressway is an important project that will improve transportation conditions and enhance regional connectivity in the northwest of the metropolitan area. Based on our accumulated experience in civil engineering and our capabilities in executing public projects, we will prioritize safety and quality to ensure the stable completion of this project."
