[사회]”Congestion in some sections of Gwigyeong-gil” … Jukjeon rest area

[앵커]

On the last day of the fifth consecutive holiday, there must be a few people on the way home.

There was congestion on some sections of the Gyeongbuk Expressway and the West Coast Expressway since the afternoon, but it is the same as the usual weekend expressway, and all sections are expected to clear around 7pm.

There’s a reporter at the freeway rest area. Reporter Kim Woo-jun!

From Daejeon to Gyeongbuk Expressway, it’s moving along the upline, but did it make it to Jukjeon rest area?

[기자]

So is. YTN reporters departed from Seoul Meeting Plaza shortly after 11 a.m. and reached the Shintanjin rest area in Daejeon in an hour and a half.

And now I’m going to go up again taking the Gyeongbu line.

There was congestion in some sections from Cheongju to Cheonan passing Sintanjin, but it was generally seen on weekends and the downline was mostly smooth.

It took about an hour and a half to get from Daejeon to the Jukjeon Rest Area.

The Jukjeon Rest Area here is also busy with the implementation of special COVID-19 quarantine measures.

You can easily find notice boards informing you about the application of the special COVID-19 quarantine throughout the rest area, and at the entrance you can see the staff checking the body temperature along with the information from the QR code.

If the verification of the QR code or handwriting is a bit inconvenient, you can easily leave a record without a special verification of the QR code by calling the virtual number before entering the rest area.

The special quarantine in rest areas during the Christmas season continues to this day.

Therefore, you cannot eat inside the Jukjeon rest area.

As you can see, the dining room chairs and desks are set aside.

However, simple snacks such as kiosks can be ordered,

There is also a convenience store.

When observing customers, most of them ate packaged food at outdoor tables before returning home.

During this Chuseok holiday, customers visiting highway rest areas across the country, compared to the Chuseok holiday last year, decreased by more than 50%.

The rest area said it will not let go of the tension until the last day of the holidays, as everyone does everything possible to avoid quarantine.

On the last day of the holidays, tell us about the situation on the road.

As mentioned above, today, the last day of the Chuseok holiday, major highways across the country are not particularly blocked.

Jukjeon’s rest area, which was always crowded on the weekends, is also a bit loose compared to the usual weekends.

As most of the homecoming procession was completed until yesterday, it seems that both the homecoming and the homecoming today will be uneventful.

Korea Expressway Corporation predicted that 3.55 million vehicles will be moved across the country today, 320,000 vehicles from the metropolitan area to the region and 370,000 vehicles from the region to the metropolitan area.

The Gyeongbu upline, which is the one most used by returnees and returnees, has been congested in some sections since 2 p.m., and the west coast line currently runs to and from the west in some sections of the upline. .

The Road Corporation predicted that congestion in Gwigyeong-gil will begin to clear around 6 p.m., and that traffic will be light in most sections by 7 p.m.
