The newly reinstalled Hamasanbo, which replaces the old movable weir, is expected to improve the function of agricultural production infrastructure by establishing a stable supply of agricultural water. It is also anticipated to enable a proactive response to heavy rainfall and natural disasters.


The city newly installed one movable weir, measuring 50 meters in length and 1.7 meters in height, at 586-1 Ilsan-ri, Mohyeon-eup, Cheoin-gu, with a total project cost of 1.4 billion won.


The Hamasanbo project began construction in June of last year and completed the civil engineering work in January of this year. During the winter months, a trial run was conducted to ensure facility stability, and after completing final inspections in April, full-scale operation began.



An official from Yongin City stated, "The Hamasanbo reinstallation project is expected to reduce the risk of river flooding caused by heavy rainfall and to enable stable water supply during the farming season, thereby improving the farming environment and increasing productivity." The official added, "We will continue to establish a stable agricultural environment by maintaining and expanding agricultural production infrastructure."
