Suwon's Younghwa-dong Public Parking Lot Opens from January 1

The public parking lot in Younghwa-dong, Jangan-gu, Suwon began operations on January 1.

The Younghwa-dong public parking lot is a modern parking facility with a total project cost of 5 billion won (50% funded by Suwon's budget, 50% by national budget). It features two basement levels and one ground level, accommodating a total of 117 vehicles on the ground floor, including 10 dedicated bus parking spaces.

The construction of the Younghwa-dong public parking lot was carried out by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and Suwon City as part of the Urban Vitality Enhancement Regional Development Project, aimed at revitalizing the stagnant Georugae Market (traditional market) and promoting vitality in declining areas.

The Urban Vitality Enhancement Regional Development Project has been pursued since 2011, centered on the "Georugae Market Merchants Association," in an effort to restore the former glory of the once-thriving Georugae Market.
