New route opened for industrial complex workers... Alleviating transportation blind spots in eastern Busan
Busan City will launch new commuter buses in the eastern Busan area to alleviate commuting difficulties for workers in the industrial complex. Starting from July 1, the route connecting Jeonggwan New Town, Jang-an Industrial Complex, and Ban-ryong Industrial Complex will open and will operate twice a day (departure at 07:00 and return at 18:00).
This measure aims to ensure that industrial complex workers in the Gijang County area are not left out of public transportation, reducing private car dependency in the Jeonggwan area and realistically improving the transportation environment. Such changes will provide a more convenient means of transportation for local residents.
Practical transportation support for Jang-an and Ban-ryong Industrial Complex workers
The newly established commuter bus route starts at 8 stops within Jeonggwan New Town and connects to 16 businesses in Jang-an Industrial Complex and 10 businesses in Ban-ryong Industrial Complex.
The bus departs at 7 AM and leaves promptly at 6 PM to effectively connect major areas where workers gather.
This is expected to reduce commuting time and alleviate traffic congestion positively.
Main boarding points in Jeonggwan include in front of Mojun Middle School, Jeonggwan Humansia, in front of Sinjeong Elementary School, Shinhan Bank, Nonghyup, and Jeonggwan Library.
Stops at Jang-an Industrial Complex include Gwangseong Instruments, Seji Solitec, Seongwoo High Tech, Shinki Intermobil, and Shinwon Micron.
Additionally, stops at Ban-ryong Industrial Complex include Korea Marine Bio Cluster, Daesung Thermal Treatment, CN Company, and Hongseong.
Total commuter buses in Busan will operate 47 buses for 101 trips starting in July
With the newly added Jeonggwan-Jang-an and Ban-ryong Industrial Complex route, the operation of commuter buses in Busan City has been expanded further. Now, a total of 47 buses will operate 101 trips a day, with 52 trips provided during the morning rush hour and 49 trips during the evening rush hour.
Currently, it operates across a total of 13 industrial complexes, which is evaluated as a good example of a public transportation welfare service.
The full route and timetable for the industrial complex buses can be checked on the related website below.
The Busan industrial complex commuter buses can be used for free without any special application. However, once the seats are full, boarding will be restricted for safety reasons and the bus will depart immediately.
There is usually enough space during the morning time, but during the evening rush, it may be restricted due to full capacity, so it is advisable to check the routes and timetables before use. This bus uses regular tourist buses, so there are no stop bells or announcement services, and passengers board and exit independently.
According to user feedback, it is noted for its punctuality, speed, and convenience in reducing stress during commuting.
Commuter buses are becoming smart, too! 'Industrial Complex Tayo' app launching in September
Busan City plans to launch a dedicated mobile application called 'Industrial Complex Tayo' in September to enhance convenience for workers.
The main features of this application include real-time bus location tracking, route guidance, emergency notification, and a complaint board. Especially, the application will be developed using a membership system for customized route design and demand analysis based on users' residences and workplaces.
The app is being developed by 'Ground K,' a digital mobility specialized company in Busan. This app is expected to enhance the quality of transportation services through tailored information sharing and route optimization based on data. After its launch, users will be able to utilize public transportation more conveniently.
Conclusion: Reduce commuting concerns and enhance quality of life
The newly introduced commuter bus route for workers in the Gijang and Jeonggwan areas will play an important role in reducing commuting times and improving quality of life. In particular, it is expected to contribute to traffic congestion reduction and promote eco-friendly policies by reducing reliance on private vehicles and encouraging public transportation use.
Eastern Busan, which is developing into a city centered around industrial complexes, sees this tailored commuting service as a critical infrastructure that enhances urban competitiveness.
