Since the launch of the 8th popularly elected administration, Osan City has established and promoted a total of 76 pledges across four major areas: innovative economic city, complex cultural city, welfare and health city, and exemplary administrative city. Of these, 47 projects have been completed, achieving an implementation rate of 61.8%.

In the innovative economic city sector, transportation infrastructure pledges such as the extension of the GTX-C line to Osan, the establishment of a new metropolitan bus route (Osan Station to Seoul Station), the early completion of the Dongbu-daero underground construction, and the early start of the Gyeongbu Line railroad crossing road project have been fulfilled. In the complex cultural city sector, pledges such as the creation of a Dulle-gil trail (Gapgolsan to Doksanseong) and the revitalization of the original downtown commercial district have been completed.

In the welfare and health city sector, resident-focused pledges such as expanded childbirth incentives, support for necessary expenses for daycare admission, installation of child pick-up and drop-off shelters, promotion of Dalbit Children's Hospital, and late-night agreement pharmacies have been fulfilled.

In the exemplary administrative city sector, projects such as the division of Daewon-dong and Sinjang-dong, introduction of the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) to alleviate urban traffic congestion, and establishment of a digital administrative service foundation have been stably completed.
