Suwon's Gwanggyo Mountain Road Widened and Bicycle Path Established

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Suwon Special City announced on the 26th that it has completed road expansion and bicycle path construction projects on Gwanggyo Mountain Road to reduce traffic congestion.

To improve vehicle congestion during commute hours and weekends, the city widened a 160m section of the downbound lane on Gwanggyo Mountain Road, which extends from the Gwanggyo Park public parking lot to the Gwanggyo Park entrance, from a single lane to two lanes.

Additionally, to improve pedestrian and bicycle usage conditions on Gwanggyo Mountain Road, a new 320m bicycle path has been constructed. A dedicated bicycle space was separated from the area where pedestrians and vehicles previously shared the same space, enhancing safety for both pedestrians and cyclists.

A city official stated, "Gwanggyo Mountain Road connects to hiking trails at Gwanggyo Mountain and Gwanggyo Reservoir, making it a heavily used route," and added, "Through this improvement, we have reduced congestion during commute hours and weekends while enhancing pedestrian and bicycle safety."
