On July 20, Ansan City announced the completion of the 'Bono-dong Semi-Industrial Area Public Off-Street Parking Lot Construction Project.'


This project was promoted to resolve illegal parking problems caused by a shortage of parking spaces and to create a more pleasant traffic environment. The city invested a total of 800 million won, including 500 million won in special grant funds from Gyeonggi Province and 300 million won in special grants from the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, to build a 3,643-square-meter public off-street parking lot at 728-3 Bono-dong, Sangnok-gu.


The parking lot, with a total of 120 spaces, broke ground last October and was completed in June this year after a temporary suspension of construction during the winter. Once operational preparations are completed, the Sangnok-gu District Office will manage and operate the facility.


Until now, the Bono-dong semi-industrial area has suffered from repeated illegal parking on side streets due to insufficient parking despite its high concentration of automobile repair and manufacturing businesses. This has raised concerns not only about inconvenience to traffic flow but also about pedestrian safety.


The establishment of this public parking lot is expected to improve parking convenience for businesses, workers, and local residents, while also helping to improve traffic flow and ensure pedestrian safety by reducing illegal parking.



Mayor Lee Mingun stated, "The creation of this public off-street parking lot is meaningful in resolving parking inconveniences for businesses and citizens and creating a safer traffic environment. We will continue to expand public parking facilities in areas with high demand, thereby enhancing citizens' parking convenience and contributing to a pleasant urban environment and revitalizing the local economy."
