[Photo] View of Yeouidaero Entrance and Exit at Sinwol-Yeoui Underpass

The 'Sinwol-Yeouido Underground Road' (formerly Seoul Jemulpo Tunnel), directly connecting Sinwol IC in Yangcheon-gu, Seoul, with Yeouidaero and Olympic-daero in Yeongdeungpo-gu, will open at midnight on the 16th. It has been 5 years and 6 months since construction began in October 2015. Using the Sinwol-Yeouido Underground Road reduces commuting time from Sinwol IC to Yeouido from 32 minutes to 8 minutes during peak hours, cutting 24 minutes. The toll fee is 2,400 won, and the speed limit is 80 km/h.
