The city announced on the 18th that it will expand bus routes serving the Dongtan, Manse, and Filial Piety districts to strengthen administrative services focused on residential areas and to improve public transportation accessibility in underserved regions.

Previously, since January 26, the city has been operating four circulation bus routes connecting major hubs in Dongtan 1 and 2 New Towns, Dongtan Station, and the Dongtan District Office. From May 11 through July, the city plans to sequentially launch five additional Dongtan circulation bus routes, two Filial Piety circulation bus routes, and two Hyangnam circulation bus routes.

The Dongtan District circulation buses are centered around Dongtan 7, 8, and 9-dong, with a focus on strengthening the transit network connected to GTX-A Dongtan Station and improving access to schools and public institutions. The city expects these efforts to make commuting and daily travel more convenient for Dongtan residents.

The Manse District Hyangnam circulation bus will connect the Manse District Office, Hyangnam Station, and transfer terminals to further facilitate resident mobility. In particular, the route is expected to contribute to the creation of a rail-linked transportation network in the future, in line with the extension of the Shinansan Line and the Seohae Line.

The Filial Piety District circulation bus will link major residential areas such as Naeri District, Bongdam 1 and 2 Districts, and Donghwa-ri, as well as Suwon University, the Filial Piety District Office, and Gibaedong. Through this, the city plans to enhance access to schools and public institutions and further strengthen intra-district mobility for local residents.
