Completely dispersed highway traffic in the eastern part of the metropolitan area (Guri/Namyangju-Gangdong/Hanam-Seongnam/Gwangju), which had been suffering from saturation (volume on some sections of the Gyeongbu Expressway was also absorbed).

After the opening of this highway, both the new road and the existing road show an impressively smooth flow during rush hour. For drivers who use this area, the term ‘transportation revolution’ comes to mind.

+ The new road itself is quite well built, with 6 round-trip lanes, drainage pavement, speeds of 120 km/h in some sections, and improved tunnel visibility.
