A local transportation service is needed for areas that are specifically designated for transportation management. The project aims to establish an effective transportation network that connects to other public transportation systems and transit stops. The project will also be able to provide a novel method of public transportation for short-distance business travel. Project status A PPI project is being proposed over a 30 year concession period. The Kangnam district suffers from a high rate of car use, almost double that of the City as a whole.
Traffic congestion continues throughout the day and is now affecting adjacent areas.
There is no longer a peak period for heavy traffic. There is heavy local business traffic, again almost double the levels across the rest of the City. People prefer to use taxis as a main method of transportation for short distance travel on Teheran Road despite the heavy traffic conditions. There is always congestion on the subway, and the distance between stations is on average around 1.5 km, which is detrimental for good access to the commercial centers located in the corridor. Many foreigners visit the tourist facilities located in Kangnam.
