Gosaegsageori to Suwon City Boundary Road Opens on 23rd

The western bypass road's remaining section, the "Gosaegsageori to Suwon City Boundary Road," which passes through the Suwon Industrial Complex and extends to the Omokcheon-dong section at the boundary with Hwaseong City, opened on the 23rd.

Suwon City established a plan to elevate the Suwon Industrial Complex access road in June 2004, commenced construction on the Gosaegsageori-Suwon Industrial Complex section in January 2006, and completed the project with a total investment of 47 billion won by the end of last year.

The road features an underground passage 600 meters long with four lanes in both directions at Gosaegsageori, and an arch bridge—Suwon City's first—with a length of 160 meters and six lanes in both directions at the Hwangguji Stream Hwangdan section. Additionally, pedestrian overpasses are planned for the industrial complex section in preparation for the completion of the 2nd and 3rd districts.

The opening ceremony was attended by Suwon Mayor Kim Yong-seo, National Assembly Speaker Hong Ki-heon, Suwon Newspaper President Lee Ho-jin, city and provincial council members, and residents.
