The project will widen a 3.29-kilometer section from Nampung-ri, Bogae-myeon, Anseong, to Moksin-ri, Wonsam-myeon, Yongin, into a four-lane road. The total project cost is less than 50 billion won, so it is not subject to a bundled preliminary feasibility study.
In August, the Anseong Gongdo bypass on National Route 38 and the Anseong Daedeok-Yongin Namsa road construction project on Local Route 23 passed a bundled preliminary feasibility study. With the Bogae-Wonsam expansion project also set to be included in the national plan, expectations are growing for an expansion of Anseong's major road network.
The city expects the road expansion to improve access between eastern Anseong and Yongin and make travel more convenient for residents.
However, inclusion in the national plan has not yet been finalized. The project must undergo further procedures, including deliberation by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's road policy committee and an official public notice.
