Selected for "2021 Bicycle City Branding Support Project" by Ministry of Public Administration and Safety
Yeosu - Goheung, bicycle course with a bridge connecting the four islands between Yeosu and Goheung to be completed by 2022
On the 15th, Yeosu-si (Mayor Kwon Oh-bong) announced that they were selected for the "2021 Bicycle City Branding Support Project" organized by the Ministry of Public Administration and Safety, and secured government funding of 200 million KRW.
This is a project that funds bicycle policies applied by each local government to revitalize bicycle usage, and Yeosu was one of the 5 to be selected out of 50 locations.
With this selection, a bridge connecting the four islands between Yeosu and Goheung will be created, and a 34.7 km bicycle road that can be seen from Gongjeong Village, Jangsu-ri, Hwayang-myeon, covering Hwajeong-myeon Jobal, Dunbyeong, Nangdo, and Jeongeum-do will be created. Bike rentals, storage units, and resting facilities will also be installed.
Yeosu-si plans to discuss completion of the implementation design within the year with relevant bodies and plans to complete the project by December of 2022.
The completion of the picturesque "Yeosu Island Road Bike Course" amongst the blue sea and scattered islands will allow people to safely ride bicycles along the fabulous beach road, and is creating anticipation that more citizens and tourists will visit the location.
An official from Yeosu city said, “The opening of the Yeosu Island Bike Road will play a symbolic role for us as a leading city responding to climate change and as a central city hosting the 28th United Nations Climate Convention (COP28).” He also advised that "efforts will be made for this project to play a positive role in improving environmental awareness among citizens."
