Osan City Launches Route 60 Bus Service in Segyo 2 District Starting Today

[Suwon Ilbo=Lee Su-won Reporter] Osan City launched Route 60 city bus service on the 1st at 6:20 a.m. as part of public transportation improvement measures during the initial move-in period for Segyo 2 District.

Route 60 departs from the Dugok-dong public bus depot and operates through Complex 21 of Segyo 2 District, Chopyeong-dong Community Center, Nueup-dong Humansia, Complex 7 of Segyo 2 District, Jeil Apartment, Hoban Summit Laforê, and Hoban Summit Terrace before arriving at Osan University Station.

The bus operates 22 times daily. On weekdays, the first bus departs from Dugok-dong depot at 5:30 a.m. and from Osan University Station at 6:00 a.m., while on weekends it departs from Dugok-dong depot at 6:20 a.m. and from Osan University Station at 6:50 a.m. The city plans to add additional vehicles based on demand.

With this new route, residents of four complexes including Nueup-dong Humansia—totaling 3,603 households—are expected to experience some relief from the inconveniences they have faced due to the limited city bus routes.

Osan Mayor Lee Kwon-jae said, "We anticipate that Route 60 bus service will significantly improve bus access for Segyo 2 District residents" and added, "We will continue to make efforts with the understanding that expanding and restructuring bus routes, which are a core axis of public transportation, to match increased transportation demand is a key task."
