Anseong City Mayor Kim Bora announced on the 19th that bus No. 4404, which connects Anseong Intercity Bus Terminal and Seoul National University of Education Station, will begin service on November 6. The route was selected by the Metropolitan Transport Route Selection Committee of the Metropolitan Transport Commission in November last year, and an operator has since been selected and preparations for service completed.


Bus No. 4404 will depart from Anseong Intercity Bus Terminal and stop at Anseong Matchum Gonggam Center, Hankyong National University, Chung-Ang University, Daelim Garden, Gongdo Intercity Bus Stop and Jueun Punglim Apartments. In Seoul, it will stop at the entrance to the Seoul Human Resources Development Institute, Nambu Bus Terminal and the Seoul National University of Education intersection before reaching Exit 13 of Seoul National University of Education Station.


Kumho Express will operate the route. Six buses will make 24 trips a day, running every 30 to 60 minutes. The first bus from Anseong Terminal will depart at 5 a.m., and the last at 10:25 p.m. The first bus from Seoul National University of Education Station will depart at 6:45 a.m. on weekdays and 6:35 a.m. on weekends and public holidays.


A seat reservation system will be available during weekday morning commute hours. It applies to buses departing Anseong at 6:10 a.m., 6:45 a.m., 7:20 a.m. and 7:55 a.m. Reservations can be made through the MiRi mobile app. Passengers may also board without a reservation if seats are available.


The city expects the new route to make travel more convenient for residents commuting to or attending school in Seoul's Gangnam area and to help ease crowding on existing express buses bound for Gangnam.



Mayor Kim Bora said, "The launch of express bus No. 4404 will make travel more convenient for residents commuting to or attending school in Seoul. We will closely monitor residents' transportation needs and continue to expand the regional transit network."
