Guri City Completes Wangsuk Stream Embankment Observation Deck Walking Path Project

[Suwon Ilbo=Eom In-yong Reporter] Guri City announced on the 31st that it has completed the observation deck walking path on the Wangsuk Stream embankment, allowing citizens to take scenic strolls while enjoying the beautiful views of the stream and waterfront park.

The newly completed "Wangsuk Stream Embankment Observation Deck Walking Path Project" was undertaken to secure pedestrian safety and recreational walking space on the upper slope of the embankment road, where automobiles, bicycles, and pedestrians currently share the roadway without a dedicated pedestrian path.

Selected and implemented as a pledge project of the 8th democratically elected mayoral term, the project was completed with a budget of 500 million won from Gyeonggi Province special coordination grants, creating a 250-meter observation deck walking path and viewing space.

Guri City Mayor Baek Kyung-hyun stated, "With the completion of the observation deck walking path on the Wangsuk Stream embankment, citizens using the stream and those visiting the Wangsuk Stream water play area during the recent extreme heat will be able to access the area more safely," adding, "Moving forward, I will continue to make efforts to create a safe and pleasant pedestrian environment where people of all ages can stroll comfortably, so that Guri City can become an even happier place."
