Busan Metropolitan City to Implement Overnight Traffic Restrictions for Bridge Girder Installation for the Deokcheon (Hwamyeong)-Yangsan Road Traffic System Improvement Project

내용

Busan Metropolitan City, led by Mayor Chun Jae-soo, announced that traffic in both directions on Gangbyeon-daero will be restricted during late-night hours on October 3 and 9 for the installation of bridge girders crossing Gangbyeon-daero within the Deokcheon (Hwamyeong)-Yangsan Road Traffic System Improvement Project section.

A girder is a large beam in a structure that bears loads and transfers them to columns, bridge piers, or other supporting structures.

The traffic restrictions for this construction work will be implemented in both directions on Gangbyeon-daero near 597 Deokcheon-dong, Buk-gu, Busan, at the intersection of Geumgok Overpass and Gangbyeon-daero.

To minimize inconvenience to motorists, the work will be carried out during late-night hours on a weekend and public holiday, when traffic volumes are lowest.

The construction will be carried out in two phases, with traffic in both directions partially restricted in the work zone for approximately 10 hours. However, while the bridge girders are being installed using a crane, all lanes will be fully closed for 10 minutes at a time in the northbound direction toward Yangsan and the southbound direction toward Dadaepo to ensure the safety of passing vehicles.

The first phase will take place for 10 hours from 22:00 on October 3 to 08:00 on October 4. The second phase will take place for nine hours from 22:00 on October 9, the Hangeul Day public holiday, to 07:00 on October 10.

23:40-23:50 (10 minutes): Northbound toward Yangsan
00:10-00:20 (10 minutes): Southbound toward Dadaepo

In addition, from October 7 to 15, one lane at a time will be partially closed during daytime hours for the installation of protective platforms.

Sim Seong-tae, Head of the Construction Headquarters of Busan Metropolitan City, said, “The bridge girder installation is a necessary part of the Deokcheon (Hwamyeong)-Yangsan Road Traffic System Improvement Project, making late-night construction unavoidable. We ask for the public’s cooperation and understanding so that the work can be completed quickly and safely.”
