Incheon Metropolitan City Government to Open 642 Public Parking Lots Free of Charge During Chuseok Holiday

【Financial News Incheon = Reporter Han Gap-su】 Incheon Metropolitan City Government will open 642 parking lots, including public parking lots and those attached to public institutions, free of charge during the Chuseok holiday period to make parking more convenient for people returning to their hometowns and local residents.
Incheon Metropolitan City Government announced on the 10th that it would open the parking lots free of charge during the holiday period to ease parking shortages in the city and help people returning to their hometowns and local residents spend a safer and more comfortable holiday for Chuseok.
The free parking period will run for four days, from the 24th through the 27th, when the Chuseok holiday begins. In particular, 24 public parking lots directly operated by the city will be open free of charge for six days, from the 23rd, the day before the holiday, through the 28th, the day after it, to improve convenience for residents.
Detailed information on the public parking lots directly operated by the city, including the locations covered and operating hours, is available on the Incheon Facilities Corporation website. However, free-opening dates and operating hours may vary somewhat because site conditions and operating circumstances differ by parking lot and institution. Residents planning to use the facilities should check in advance whether the relevant parking lot is open and confirm its operating hours.
Information on the locations and opening schedules of the parking lots available free of charge can be found on Share Nuri, a public-service reservation and information platform, and the Public Data Portal. Related information can also be checked in real time through major map and navigation services, including NAVER Map, Kakao Map, TMAP, iNavi Air, and Hyundai Motor navigation.
Park Seong-sun, director of the Transportation Policy Bureau, said, "During the Chuseok holiday, we will minimize traffic congestion and parking inconveniences so that people returning to their hometowns and local residents can enjoy a safe and pleasant holiday without the stress of finding parking."
